Apresenta-se o caso clínico de uma doente seropositiva para o virus da imunodeficiência humana (VIH+) com um quadro de esofagite idiopática com excelente resposta à terapêutica com talidomida, associando-se regressão do síndrome febril que se manifestara concomitantemente. O mecanismo de acção da talidomida nestes casos é desconhecido, mas poderá estar relacionado com os efeitos do fármaco sobre o sistema imunitário ou dever-se a um efeito anti-retroviral directo.
