Sumario: | Drug resistance is very common in developing countries. Isolated cases of concomitant infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Citrobacter koseri, and Morganella morganii are rare. Furthermore, there is no report available in the literature of concurrent infection of Citrobacter koseri and Morganella morganii in an isoniazid mono-resistant tuberculosis patient. In this case, we present a concomitant infection with drug-resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Citrobacter koseri, and Morganella morganii in a 40-year-old Indian male who presented with fever, dry cough, and chest pain. He was initiated on an isoniazid mono regimen and a broad-spectrum antibiotic, following the national guidelines. |
