Abstract
Introduction: The coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic demonstrated a negative influence on many underlying diseases, their course, and prognosis. A combined course of active tuberculosis, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, and COVID-19 is a rare case in the routine clinical practice; therefore, it is of scientific and practical interest. In a 41-year-old patient with severe chronic disseminated pulmonary tuberculosis and HIV infection, presence of tuberculosis mycobacteria, resistance to streptomycin and isoniazid, chronic respiratory failure, cachexia, and immunodeficiency, COVID-19 was manifested only by the detection of SARS-Cov-2 virus from the nasopharynx and did not influence the treatment and prognosis of tuberculosis.
Conclusion: The described case of a combination of active tuberculosis with HIV infection and COVID-19 demonstrated that effective treatment of specific tuberculosis process is quite possible.
