Abstract

Anti-TNF-α are used in the treatment of rheumatic diseases not responsive to first-line regimens. Data on the safety of anti-TNF-α in HIV-infected patients are scarce and conflicting. We describe a case of septic shock and multiorgan failure occurred after etanercept initiation and influenza vaccination in a HIV-infected-woman with rheumatoid arthritis.
