Abstract:
Recently, spontaneous pneumomediastinum (PM), pneumopericardium (PP), pneumothorax (PT), and subcutaneous emphysema (SE) were reported as infrequent complications in coronavirus disease ۲۰۱۹ (COVID-۱۹) patients in intensive care (ICU). Here we report these complications in nine Iranian patients of COVID-۱۹. Nine patients with reported PM, PP, PT, and SE in COVID-۱۹ who were hospitalized in Arya hospital, Rasht, Iran, for three months, were followed to record demographic data and clinical characteristics of these patients. In nine PM-developed patients, six cases represented PT, one patient with PP, and four patients with PT and SE. Four patients expired and only five patients survived. PM, PP, PT, and SE are uncommon complications in COVID-۱۹ patients and were reported frequently in male patients. Early diagnosis and treatment could save the patients since these complications are related to poor prognosis and prolonged hospitalization. Patients with mild COVID-۱۹ and mild pulmonary damage have a favorable outcome.
