Incidental Detection of Congenital Cystic Adenomatoid Malformation After Thoracoscopic Repair of Diaphragmatic Hernia
Abstract
Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused millions of people to become infected and had resulted several deaths. After initial resolution, in cases of clinical deterioration, it is essential to consider the possibility of coinfections. Non-tuberculous mycobacteria infections are rare and often overlooked. In this report, we present a severe acute respiratory syndrome-Coronavirus-2 and Mycobacterium fortuitum coinfected patient. Our intention is to bring attention to the possibility of such coinfection without a known history of any lung diseases or immunosuppression other
than COVID-19 and thus, broadening the clinical thinking process of physicians.
