Resum

In the present manuscript, a case of liver abscess possibly caused by an evolved cholecystitis has been collected in which an anaerobic germ, fusobacterium mortiferum, is involved, not described in the literature as a causal agent of this type of infections, therefore, having an infection due to the presence of an infrequent bacterium in a patient with a diagnosis of COVID 19, we can postulate the possibility that the immune status of the patient when presenting the disease could have induced the infection or simply be 2 independent events that occur at the same moment.
