ABSTRACT

In particular, the recovery period of the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) patients with chronic disease may be prolonged, and the clinical course of the disease may be severe. The patient with prolonged severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) positivity and recurrent COVID-19 detected cytomegalovirus (CMV) pneumonia and deep lymphopenia was detected, and the patient was consulted to the immunology clinic. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) tests were performed when the CD4 level was 1% (27-57) in the peripheral lymphocyte subgroup analysis evaluated. HIV tests were performed and HIV RNA was positive. The patient was referred to the infectious diseases department. Viral causes of immunodeficiency, such as HIV, should also be considered in patients with recurrent COVID-19 and prolonged SARS-CoV-2 PCR positivity.

Key words: COVID-19, CMV, HIV, immune deficiency
