| الوصف: | We report the case of a 52-year-old male heterosexual patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and reactivation of Chagas' disease manifested by meningoencephalitis and myocarditis, diagnosed post-mortem. Unexplained reactivation of Chagas' disease should be included among the diagnostic criteria of AIDS in human immunodeficiency virus positive patients. On the other hand, AIDS should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with unexplained reactivation of Chagas' disease.Relata-se o caso de um paciente de 52 anos, heterossexual, com síndrome da imunodeficiência adquirida e reativação de doença de Chagas, manifestada por meningoencefalite e miocardite diagnosticadas post mortem. Reativação inexplicada de doença de Chagas deveria estar entre os critérios para diagnóstico de AIDS em portadores do vírus da imunodeficiência adquirida. Por outro lado, o diagnóstico de AIDS deveria ser considerado em pacientes com reativação inexplicada de doença de Chagas. |
