Abstract
Diagnosis of tuberculosis was affected during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Several studies have shown an association between tuberculosis reactivation and COVID-19, but disseminated tuberculosis was rare. We present a case of a 17-year-old male hospitalized due to a fever of unknown origin for two weeks. The patient recovered from COVID-19 five weeks ago, and his nasopharyngeal severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was negative on current hospitalization. After investigations, diagnosis of disseminated tuberculosis was made by lymph node biopsy and radiological features. The patient was treated with four anti-tuberculosis medications and had a favorable outcome.
