Abstract

The declared COVID-19 pandemic has come to affect the entire world. Ever since the first cases were detected, pneumothorax has been considered a rare but possible complication, and may develop in patients under mechanical ventilation due to high pressure. We present here a case of simultaneous bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax with COVID-19 pneumonia with no history of chronic lung disease and no mechanical ventilation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
