【 摘 要 】

In severe COVID pneumonia, we have seen reports of patients suffering from spontaneous pneumomediastinum, as well as pneumothorax as a unique complication. Diffuse alveolar damage can be the etiology behind this. We report a case of a 51-year-old mountaineer female who had severe COVID pneumonia, developed air leaks, but her lung injury and scarring completely improved in 5 months.
