We have obtained the closed-loop fluid-fluid immiscibility in the phase diagram of a binary mixture with interactions with spherical symmetry. That topology appears when a short-range attractive interaction is considered between unlike pair molecules. We present "exact" results obtained from Monte Carlo simulation on different ensembles and results from the application of a first-order perturbation theory.
