Title: Pulmonary emphysema, bullae and pneumothorax in COVID-19 pneumonia Cord-id: 4mo932w8 Document date: 2021_1_31
ID: 4mo932w8
Snippet: In this paper, we described two cases with COVID-19 pneumonia, who developed pulmonary emphysema, bullae and pneumothorax during therapy. In a 48-year-old man with mechanical ventilation, parts of ground glass opacities and consolidations transformed into emphysema and giant bulla, and bilateral pneumothorax were also observed. In a 35-year-old man, localized emphysema and pulmonary bullae were seen in subpleural area in bilateral upper lobes, where no previous lesions were presented. In conclus
Document: In this paper, we described two cases with COVID-19 pneumonia, who developed pulmonary emphysema, bullae and pneumothorax during therapy. In a 48-year-old man with mechanical ventilation, parts of ground glass opacities and consolidations transformed into emphysema and giant bulla, and bilateral pneumothorax were also observed. In a 35-year-old man, localized emphysema and pulmonary bullae were seen in subpleural area in bilateral upper lobes, where no previous lesions were presented. In conclusion, pulmonary emphysema, bullae and pneumothorax could be complications of COVID-19. On one hand, surgical emphysema in ventilated COVID-19 patients was observed as in SARS patients. On the other hand, more serious destruction of lung parenchyma was found in COVID-19 patients.
