First case was reported at the end of 2019 in China. Children and neonate population appears to be relatively free of the virus. We reported a severe and fatal neonate case of COVID-19 in a 22 days old neonate female due to the delta variant strain during the third wave outbreak. She presented with fever, cough, grunting and diarrhea started 5 days before admission. Physical exam’s revealed severe respiratory distress, hypoxia and bilateral pulmonary condensation. PCR test for COVID-19 was positive. Chest X-ray found bilateral infiltrates. Chest CT showed diffuse ground glass images with 75% of lung parenchymal involvement. She was treated with antibiotics, corticostoid, respiratory support (CPAP and oxygen). Death occurred after 15 days of hospitalization in the context of multiple organ failure and pulmonary hypertension.展开更多

The exact incidence of the pelvic form of tuberculosis is not known due to under-reporting of asymptomatic cases, vague symptomatology and lack of reliable diagnosis. We report a case of ovarian tuberculosis mimicking cancer and peritoneal carcinosis. The case involved a 15-year-old girl, hospitalized for severe pelvic pain and secondary amenorrhea. The examination showed an altered general state, a fever, a sensitive distended abdomen. The biology showed an elevation of Ca125 to 357 IU/ml. The CT scan showed a latero-uterine mass taking contrast in a heterogeneous </span><span>way with an irregular and nodular thickening of the peritoneum making</span><span> evoke </span><span>a peritoneal carcinosis.

Biopsy of the mass and the peritoneum showed a caseo-follicular gigantocellular epitheloid granulomatosis.展开更多
