Abstract
The article discusses the issues of radiation diagnosis of coronavirus pneumonia COVID-19 in patients with newly diagnosed tuberculosis against the background of HIV infection using the example of the clinical case of 50-year-old patient who treated with respiratory complaints and fever, who had pronounced changes in the lungs according to radiological methods. The diagnosis of coronavirus infection, tuberculosis and HIV infection was confirmed morphologically. The course of newly diagnosed TB in a patient with HIV infection was complicated by severe bilateral viral pneumonia. A feature of this case was the atypical localization and unusual manifestation of tuberculous changes on the background of HIV infection according to multispiral computed tomography, as well as a long relapsing course of viral pneumonia, with long-term persistence of the SARS-CоV-2 coronavirus.
