Pandemi, doktorlarýn tüm viral pnömonileri birinci ön taný olarak COVID-19 olarak deðerlendirmeye yatkýn hale getirmiþtir. COVID-19'un kesin tanýsý, pozitif bir RT-PCR testi ile konur, ancak bazen RT-PCR test sonuçlarý negatif olan, fakat COVID-19'u gösteren toraks BT bulgularý olan olgular da vardýr. Bu nedenle, COVID-19 tedavilerinden fayda görmeyen hastalarda ayýrýcý tanýda immünsupresif sebeplerin ve diðer viral pnömonilerin araþtýrýlmasý çok önemlidir. Buzlu cam opasiteleri ayýrýcý tanýsýnda HIV enfeksiyonu saptanan bir olgu sunulmuþtur.

The pandemic has predisposed all healthcare professionals to assess all viral pneumonia cases preliminarily as COVID-19, with a definitive diagnosis of COVID-19 made on the basis of a positive RT-PCR result. Occasionally, however, there are cases with negative RT-PCR test results both with thoracic CT findings indicative of COVID-19. It is thus very important to consider immunosuppressive conditions and other viral types of pneumonia in the differential diagnosis in patients who do not seem to respond to COVID-19 treatments. We present her a case of HIV infection identified in a differential diagnosis of ground glass opacities.
