As coronavirus pandemic continues to spread over the world, physicians have to be aware of atypical features of COVID-19 pneumonia. We report the case of a 78-year-old man presenting with pseudo-tumoral focal lesion of the left lung which switched shortly to severe and diffuse COVID-19 induced pneumonia. Nuclear medicine physicians and radiologists should be careful of some misleading hypermetabolic aspects mostly in asymptomatic patients.
随着新冠疫情在全球持续蔓延,医生必须了解新冠肺炎的非典型特征。我们报告一例78岁男性病例,该患者最初表现为左肺假性肿瘤样局灶性病变,随后迅速发展为重症弥漫性新冠肺炎所致肺炎。核医学医生和放射科医生应注意一些具有误导性的高代谢表现,尤其是在无症状患者中。
