Esophagitis Due to Actinomycosis in an Immunocompetent Patient with a History of SARS-Cov-2 Infection: Case Report

We present an unusual case of esophageal actinomycosis that developed in a patient with normal immunity and a history of acute SARS-CoV-2 infection. We report a case of a 56-year-old female patient without chronic degenerative pathologies with a history of non-severe acute SARS-CoV-2 infection that occurred two months prior to her presentation, treated with prednisone and betamethasone orally and inhaled, respectively for 21 days. The pivotal symptom is dysphagia and definitive diagnosis requires a tissue culture of the affected organ or a biopsy that shows the classic sulfur granules. Currently, antibiotic treatment with beta-lactams, such as amoxicillin/clavulanic acid, is still effective, as it was in our patient.
