Latent tuberculosis reactivation in the setting of SARS-Cov-2 infection: The analysis of the radiologic features that help the diagnosis.

In Italy tuberculosis is a relatively rare disease and people coming from developing nations are usually affected. The radiological findings are variable and depend on the tuberculosis activity, if primary or post-primary. In literature, few data are reported about the co-existence of COVID-19 and lung tuberculosis. In this case report, authors describe the imaging features of latent lung tuberculosis in a patient with SARS-CoV-2 disease. The important role of CT imaging in identifying and diagnosing other infectious lung diseases presenting in the setting of the polymorphism and severity of SARS-CoV-2 disease is also discussed.
