ABSTRACT
Tietze syndrome is a rare disease. It is mainly characterized by chest pain caused by a unilateral and monoarticular lesion of the second-fifth costal joints. Tietze syndrome is one of the potential complications in the post-COVID-19 period. It is one of the differential diagnoses for non-ischemic chest pain. With early diagnosis and appropriate treatment, this syndrome is easily manageable. The authors present a case of a 38-year-old male who had been diagnosed with Tietze syndrome in the post-coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) period.
