Rare Case of Concomitant Pulmonary Tuberculosis and Cytomegalovirus Infection in an Immunocompetent Patient.

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) and tuberculosis (TB) are two distinct infectious diseases that can cause significant health complications and may share clinical manifestations, complicating diagnosis and management. Herein, we present a case report of an immunocompetent patient with concurrent pulmonary CMV and TB infections, highlighting the rare occurrence of dual infection with TB and CMV in an otherwise healthy individual. An enhanced awareness among healthcare professionals about the potential for concurrent infections can improve diagnostic accuracy and patient care in similarly challenging cases.
