ABSTRACT

Introduction and importance: In the last few years, the novel coronavirus, named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), generated a large health care problem worldwide. Due to the immunomodulation effect of the virus the number of opportunistic infections has also increased. Case presentation: We present the unique case of a patient who was diagnosed with an actinomycotic liver abscess after coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) without the presence of any chronic disease or mucosal injury. Clinical discussion: According to the results of the computer tomography (CT scan) and the liver biopsy, the patient was treated with antibiotics and ultrasound-guided drainage. Conclusion: With this case we would like to draw attention to the possible occurrence of liver abscesses caused by an opportunistic pathogen following COVID-19.
