COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) is an infectious disease that causes respiratory tract infection in humans. This disease, which first appeared in Wuhan, China, has spread worldwide, causing a pandemic. COVID-19, which is constantly came into question with new complications, remains the leading problem all over the world. In this case report, it was aimed to present a COVID-19 case with both sialadenitis and thyroiditis. Although separate cases of thyroiditis and sialadenitis have been reported, we think that it may contribute to the literature since there is no similar case with together.

Bir COVID-19 hastasında sialadenit ve tiroiditin atipik birlikteliği: Bir olgu sunumu

Öz

COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) insanlarda solunum yolu enfeksiyonuna neden olan bulaşıcı bir hastalıktır. İlk olarak Çin'in Vuhan kentinde ortaya çıkan bu hastalık tüm dünyaya yayılarak bir pandemiye neden oldu. Sürekli yeni komplikasyonlarla gündeme gelen COVID-19, tüm dünyada hala en önde gelen sorun olmaya devam ediyor. Bu olgu sunumunda hem sialadenit hem de tiroidit ile seyreden bir COVID-19 vakasının sunulması amaçlandı. Tiroidit ve sialadenit için ayrı vakalar bildirilmiş olsa da birlikte benzer bir vaka olmaması nedeniyle literatüre katkı sağlayabileceğini düşünüyoruz.
