Abstract

The spectrum of HIV associated rheumatic syndromes continues to expand as does our experience with the disease. The following is a case of HIV associated systemic necrotizing vasculitis documented by rectal biopsy. The patient was treated successfully with corticosteroids alone, and after 9 months of followup has no evidence of progression to frank AIDS.
