Abstract
A case of polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) like systemic necrotizing vasculitis in an HIV infected individual, who presented with digital ischaemia is reported. The pathogenesis of PAN in HIV infected patients is not well understood and whether HIV or other agents are directly involved in the vascular injury remains to be established.
