Consequently, these patients can develop high-level parvovirus viremia, which is treated with repeated courses of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG). We describe an HIV-infected patient who mounted a primary immune response against parvovirus B19 after starting highly active antiretroviral therapy.A 31-year-old man was referred to our clinic because of recently diagnosed HIV infection. The hemoglobin level was 61 g/L, the CD4+ cell count was 0.02 cells × 109/L, and the HIV RNA level on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was 14 700 copies/mL. Serum parvovirus IgG and IgM ...Reference1.
