Infectious mononucleosis combined with SARS-CoV-2 infection.

A clinical analysis of COVID-19 cases combined with acute respiratory diseases is presented. The aim of the study was to analyze clinical and laboratory data of patients with combined COVID-19 infection. In patient A. infected with SARS-CoV-2 without X-ray confirmation of lung damage, acute tonsillitis, polyadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly, moderate leukocytosis, lymphomonocytosis and the presence of reactive lymphocytes were detected. Serological and molecular biological studies were carried out for the purpose of differential diagnosis. A positive test result for IgM antibodies to EBV was obtained. The method of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) revealed EBV DNA in blood plasma. The result of the determination of heterogeneous IgG antibodies to the EBV caspid antigen is negative. Clinical symptoms of the patient with coronavirus infection COVID-19, confirmed by radiological and serological screening, included: fever, sore throat, hyperemia and hypertrophy of the palatine tonsils, hepatomegaly, changes of the cellular composition of the blood. At the same time, the lymph nodes in the neck, chest and abdominal cavity were not enlarged;the presence of reactive lymphocytes and plasma cells was not detected. Serological markers of EBV were also not detected. A PCR test for Epstein-Barr virus DNA was negative.Copyright © 2022 Infectious Diseases: News, Opinions, Training.
