Title: Spontaneous pneumomediastinum in a male adult with COVID-19 pneumonia Cord-id: k48s9sum Document date: 2020_7_30
ID: k48s9sum
Snippet: Spontaneous pneumomediastinum is a rare complication of viral pneumonia. Here we report a case of a 52 year old male who presented with a spontaneous pneumomediastinum in COVID-19 pneumonia, followed by a severe course of disease. We discuss the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying this association as well as its possible clinical implications as a marker of disease severity in COVID-19.
