The authors report a case of a 32-year-old Thai woman with a COVID-19 infection that presented with urticaria and angioedema with a pityriasis rosea (PR)-like rash at a private hospital in Thailand. She presented at the hospital with bloody nasal discharge and diarrhea but without fever, myalgia, or any respiratory symptoms. She complained of angioedema and PR-like lesions on the third day of the treatment. Urticarial rash appeared intermittently for four weeks after all medications were discontinued, during which the patient had no fever, no respiratory symptoms, or any other symptoms. However, the RT-PCR results for COVID-19 RNA were positive during the time that the urticarial symptoms persisted. The COVID-19 RNA became negative on the fourth day after the last urticarial episode. Urticarial rash may be a clue that the inflammatory process is activated by COVID-19 virus after the treatment is completed. Keywords: Cutaneous; Pityriasis rosea; Angioedema; Urticaria; COVID-19

During COVID-19 pandemic, the increasing incidence of dengue in Monsoon season has become a further threat especially in the dengue endemic countries of Southeast Asia like Bangladesh. Co-infection of dengue with COVID-19 has created a number of practical challenges to combat the diseases simultaneously, especially at a time when healthcare resources are already exhausted tackling the COVID pandemic. We are presenting the case report of a 14 year old girl who suffered from both RT-PCR positive COVID -19 infection & NS1 positive Dengue. She was managed in a Private Hospital of Dhaka as Dengue fever Group C (due to severe plasma leakage) with severe COVID-19 infection (as required oxygen therapy). She had a critical course of illness, having continued fever, cough, breathlessness, desaturation along with thrombocytopenia & plasma leakage. However, to our great satisfaction, the patient was ultimately improved & could be discharged in a happy face. Bangladesh J Medicine July 2022; 33(1) : 104-108

Vaccination is one of the cornerstones in the efforts towards ending the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. However, several adverse effects of COVID-19 vaccination have been identified. Pityriasis rosea (PR)-like eruption is a rare cutaneous complication of immunization. To the best of our knowledge, there have been no reports of PR-like eruptions following inoculation with Oxford/AstraZeneca ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (AZD1222) vaccine. Here, we described a case of PR-like eruption that developed 14 days after Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccination in a 52-year-old Thai woman with glioblastoma. Treatment with topical 0.1% triamcinolone acetonide twice per day showed partial response after seven days. Despite this rare complication, our report highlights that the presence of PR-like eruption is not a contraindication for subsequent vaccinations.

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (Covid-19) has now become a concern around the world. Until 6 September 2020, there were 190,665 cases in Indonesia, and it was in the third rank of most cases in the Asian region. It is important to determine the criteria of return to work for healthcare workers with Covid-19 positive in Indonesia. This case report discussed a female patient, 32 years old with chief complaint of fever and itchy throat since 2 days ago. She is a health care worker in the hospital, with a history of treating patients with positive confirmation of Covid-19 for 2 days in the ordinary ward before the case was confirmed with a history of contact approximately 5 days ago. The patient was diagnosed with positive confirmation of Covid-19 and was required for self-isolation. The patient still had positive results of RT-PCR Covid-19 up to the third examination in 30 days after the initial RT-PCR testing, although received specific antiviral treatment with oral oseltamivir and oral supplementation. Based on growing evidence that Sars-Cov-2 may not infectious for more than ten days in the mild-moderate disease, this case report is strengthening the use of symptom-based strategic approach to determine when to return to work in Indonesian healthcare workers with positive COVID-19.

COVID 19 is an ongoing pandemic which can cause severe respiratory symptoms, with the involvement of renal, liver, haematopoietic, neurological and immune system. This case report describes a case of COVID 19 patient who presented with anosmia, loss of taste, without any other respiratory symptoms. Radiological examination of chest through High Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) revealed CORADS 5 with a CT severity score of 4/25, but blood investigations revealed thrombocytopenia with leukopenia. RT PCR nasopharyngeal swab was negative. Complete blood count revealed severe thrombocytopenia after other causes of fever with thrombocytopenia were ruled out. It is important to monitor and evaluate all atypical and rare presentations of COVID 19, such as isolated thrombocytopenia.

AbstractThe new acute respiratory disease severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) is highly contagious. It has caused many deaths, despite a relatively low general case fatality rate (CFR). The most common early manifestations of infection are fever, cough, fatigue and myalgia. The diagnosis is based on the exposure history, clinical manifestation, laboratory test results, chest computed tomography (CT) findings and a positive reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) result for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The effect of SARS-CoV-2 on pregnancy is not already clear. There is no evidence that pregnant women are more susceptible than the general population. In the third trimester, COVID-19 can cause premature rupture of membranes, premature labour and fetal distress. There are no data on complications of SARS-CoV-2 infection before the third trimester. COVID-19 infection is an indication for delivery if necessary to improve maternal oxygenation. Decision on delivery mode should be individualised. Vertical transmission of coronavirus from the pregnant woman to the fetus has not been proven. As the virus is absent in breast milk, the experts encourage breastfeeding for neonatal acquisition of protective antibodies.

Abstract Background There has been a rapid rise in the number of COVID-19-associated rhino-orbital mucormycosis (CAROM) cases especially in South Asian countries, to an extent that it has been considered an epidemic among the COVID-19 patients in India. As of May 13, 2021, 101 CAROM cases have been reported, of which 82 cases were from India and 19 from the rest of the world. On the other hand, pulmonary mucormycosis associated with COVID-19 has a much lesser reported incidence of only 7% of the total COVID-19-associated mucormycosis cases (Singh AK, Singh R, Joshi SR, Misra A, Diab Metab Syndr: Clin Res Rev, 2021). This case report attempts to familiarize the health care professionals and radiologists with the imaging findings that should alarm for follow-up and treatment in the lines of CAROM. Case presentation Rhino-orbital mucormycosis (ROM) is a manifestation of mucormycosis that is thought to be acquired by inhalation of fungal spores into the paranasal sinuses. Here, we describe a 55-year-old male, post COVID-19 status with long standing diabetes who received steroids and ventilator therapy for the management of the viral infection. Post discharge from the COVID-19 isolation ICU, the patient complained of grayish discharge from the right nostril and was readmitted to the hospital for the nasal discharge. After thorough radiological and pathological investigation, the patient was diagnosed with CAROM and managed. Conclusion Uncontrolled diabetes and imprudent use of steroids are both contributing factors in the increased number of CAROM cases. Our report emphasizes on the radiological aspect of CAROM and reinforces the importance of follow-up imaging in post COVID-19 infection cases with a strong suspicion of opportunistic infections.
