摘　　要：Coinfection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and viral hepatitis is associated with high morbidity and mortality in the absence of clinical management, making identification of these cases crucial. Screening for hepatitis viral-HIV coinfection before initiation of treatment for viral hepatitis or HIV is recommended. In this context, we report a case of possible cross-reaction between the serology of viral hepatitis C and HIV infection by rapid diagnostic orientation tests. Although these rapid tests are the main diagnostic tools in developing countries, their scientific validation must be required before they are made available to practitioners. The knowledge and the rigorous application of diagnostic algorithms of viral infections will make it possible to save money and to better organize the prevention and management strategies for patients as part of an integrated Hepatitis/HIV program.Coinfection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and viral hepatitis is associated with high morbidity and mortality in the absence of clinical management, making identification of these cases crucial.
