An acute COVID-19 infection can result in cystic lung changes that have a unique presentation and are inherently difficult to manage with or without preexisting conditions. Even though reportedly very few COVID-19 patients develop secondary bacterial infections due to unclear mechanisms, a postviral sequela with typical and atypical organisms can prolong the course of lung damage. The long-term effects of COVID-19 lung damage are still unclear, as the morbidity of the disease process is yet to be fully understood. This report presents a rare complication of COVID pneumonia with bilateral necrotizing pneumatoceles presenting with hemoptysis and bilateral pneumothoraces with positive sputum cultures for and It highlights rare complications of COVID-19 requiring multiple hospital admissions and ongoing home oxygen therapy.
急性新冠病毒感染可导致肺部出现囊性改变，这种改变具有独特的表现形式，无论有无基础疾病，其治疗都具有内在的难度。尽管据报道，由于机制不明，很少有新冠病毒患者会继发细菌感染，但由典型和非典型病原体引起的病毒感染后遗症会延长肺部损伤的病程。新冠病毒肺部损伤的长期影响仍不明确，因为该疾病过程的发病率尚未完全了解。本报告介绍了一例罕见的新冠病毒肺炎并发症，患者出现双侧坏死性肺大疱，伴有咯血和双侧气胸，痰培养阳性，分别为 和 。它强调了新冠病毒感染的罕见并发症，这些并发症需要多次住院治疗并持续进行家庭氧疗。
