No significant findings reported. In retrospect, a subtle ground-glass pattern can be seen in both lungs, with peripheral distribution.
Case Discussion
Microbiologic test was positive to SARS-CoV-2.
This case shows how fast COVID-19 can progress, with typical radiological findings of patchy, bilateral alveolar consolidations with peripheral distribution and ground-glass density in early stages.
