Objectives
• Present in a case-based discussion format
–unique scenarios which highlight
interesting concepts in Pediatric HIV care
• Utilization of Post-exposure Prophylaxis
(PEP)
• Acute HIV Infection in a teenager
• Rheumatologic complications of HIV
disease
Case #1
• A 10 year African-American female with perinatal
HIV infection
• On Epivir, Stavudine and Lopinavir/r for three +
years.
• Viral load has been <50 for 3 years
• CD4 counts are stable @ 29-39% (765-1259)
• CDC Classification B3 – recurrent bacterial
infections and CD4 % < 15% repeatedly @ 4 years
of age
• History of peripheral neuropathy – improved on
Vitamin B6 50mg daily
Case #1
• !0 yo AA female present to the ER with pain in
her left foot and left buttocks / hip without
fever, gait reported as normal
• Urinalysis shows + leukocyte esterase, 10
WBCs, 5 RBCs (subsequent culture + for
Enterococcus >100,000 cfus)
• Positive Family History for “Rheumatoid
Arthritis in the Paternal Grandmother
• Recent VL <50, CD4 28%, 966
• Given Septra for UTI, and hydrocodone for
hip pain
What is the most likely diagnosis
at this time?

Case #1
• This 10 year old AA female returns 6 weeks later complaining of
different joint pains, especially the left knee > right knee, no
dysuria, no fevers, a 3 pound weight loss, and occasional loose
stools
• She has a red, warm, swollen left knee > the simply swollen right
knee and decreased ROM of wrists and ankles due to pain not
weakness (no “arthritis”)
• Rapid Strept throat swab + culture, urinalysis and culture, stool
cultures, Urine for GC/CZ, ASO, PCR for CMV, EBV, HBV, HCV,
HTLV-I and Parvovirus, along with a Rheumatologic panel and
routine HIV labs are sent
• Patient is given Naprosyn 375 mg PO BID, Prevacid for
symptomatic treatment
Arthritis of Left Knee
What is the most likely diagnosis
at this time?
1. Rheumatic Fever
2. Reactive Arthritis
3. HIV associated
Arthritis
4. Rheumatoid Arthritis
5. Systemic Lupus
Erythematosis
Case #1
• All the “reactive arthritis” labs are negative.
• Her VL is <50 and CD4 counts are stable.
• The ANA is positive 1:1280. The RNP, SSA and SSB, Smith Ab,
Anti-phospholipid Ab and Histone Ab are all positive with normal
C3 and C4 levels.
• The tentative diagnosis is drug mediated autoimmune antibody
response (Kaletra). Pt. continues on Prevacid, Indocin, and ASA
with symptomatic relief.
• Her ARVs are changed based on Genotype testing and she
intermittently has VL < 50 due to poor compliance.
• She is followed by the Rheumatology and ID services.
Case #1
• 18 months later this 12 yo female develops hematuria and
proteinuria along with very low C3 and C4 levels and “re-elevation”
of her autoimmune antibodies (ANA again 1:1280)
• A renal biopsy shows diffuse proliferative immune complex (IgG,
IgM, C3 and C1q) glomerulonephritis, most consistent with lupus
nephritis, Class IV-G.

Case #1
• This patient is now almost 16 years old with
reasonable control of her Lupus nephritis and
arthritis with monthly infusions of corticosteroids
and cytoxan.
• Her medical care has been complicated by the
separation and divorce of her parents.
• Her HIV is poorly controlled due to noncompliance with her ARV regimen.
Lupus Nephritis
WHO Class IV-G
Case #1
Take Home Points
• Musculoskeletal disease in association with HIV
is more common.
• Rheumatologic disease is also more common.
• Effective ARV therapy / control is an important
aspect of therapy for these patients.
• Corticosteroids is the mainstay of therapy in
most rheumatologic disease with HIV
• Cytotoxic agents can be used in refractory cases,
with CD4 counts > 200.
Case #2
• 17 yo WM presents to the ER with fevers, decreased
energy and whole body aches for 2 weeks, diarrhea and
3 lb. weight loss in the last week, arthalgia in lower
extremities, a new rash on hands and feet
• Patient reports unprotected receptive anal intercourse
• The patient has a 1.5 cm “painless” ulcer on the corona
of his penis. Temperature is 38.8 C. Both knees are
swollen , warm but not red. His tonsils are 2+ without
exudate or other oral lesions noted. There are multiple,
bilateral 1-2cm. anterior cervical nodes which are mildly
tender and non-tender 1 cm. inguinal LNs. His palms
and soles have multiple 0.5-1 cm. red macules.
• His neurological exam is entirely normal.

Mutations

• PI mutations: L10I, M36I/V, I54M, D60E, L63,
A71T, V77I, L90M
Mutation Interpretation
• PI Major Resistance Mutations: I54M,
L90M PI
• Minor Resistance Mutations: L10I, A71T
Other Mutations: M36IV, D60E, L63P, V77I
Mutation Interpretation
• NRTI Resistance Mutations: A62DV,
M184V, T215DY
• NNRTI Resistance Mutations: None
• Other Mutations: None
Mutation Interpretation
• M184V/I cause high-level in vitro resistance to 3TC and FTC
and low-level in vitro resistance to ddI and ABC. M184V/I
increases susceptibility to AZT, TDF, and d4T.
• T215Y causes AZT and D4T resistance and reduces
susceptibility to ABC, ddI, and TDF particularly when it
occurs in combination with M41L and L210W.
• T215S/C/D/E/I/V are transitions between wild type and the
mutations Y and F.
• Other A62V is associated with multinucleoside resistance
caused by Q151M; its effect in the absence of Q151M is not
known.
What is the next best step? He wants to take
medications but is tired of taking so many
pills
1. Take him off all HAART
and start OI
prophylaxis
2. Take him off all
HAART, start OI
prophylaxis, start 3TC
3. Start new regimen
4. Adherence counseling
What regimen options would you
choose?

emtricitabine) + Raltegravir
2. Darunavir/r + Truvada®
(emtricitabine/tenofovir) +
etravirine or raltegravir
3. Tipranavir/r + Truvada ®
(emtricitabine/tenofovir) +
etravirine or raltegravir
4. Send tropism assay for
maraviroc
Current regimen
• Atripla® (efavirenz/tenofovir/emtricitabine),
raltegravir (CD4 at start-29)
• Continued dapsone/azithromycin
• One month and 3 months later: CD4 29 to
95 (10%), VL remains undetectable
Case # 4
• 20 yo with perinatal HIV infection
• Highly treatment experienced
• Currently on darunavir/r, raltegravir,
emtricitabine/tenofovir, azithromycin, fluconazole,
dapsone
• Remains noncompliant last VL >100,000,
CD4 8 (1%) March of 2011
• Ongoing issues: wasting (wt down to 94 lbs),
diarrhea, candida esophagitis, pneumonia

continue OI
prophylaxis only
2. Stress adherence and
continue current

3. Construct a new
regimen
4. Take off HAART and
start Epivir + OI
