摘要
There is mounting evidence that coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can cause immune dysregulation. The consequence of this immune dysregulation may contribute to susceptibility to tuberculosis (TB). Thyroid gland involvement by TB is extremely uncommon and typically the result of disseminated infection. It can be hard to diagnose because there are no identifiable symptoms. We present the case of a Chinese patient who had a fever again after COVID-19 infection that was finally diagnosed as thyroid tuberculosis with a cold abscess. Clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion for high -risk patients from endemic regions with medical comorbidities, such as immunocompromised disease and malnutrition.
