- Abstract
These changes could not only predispose patients to develop PPF with associated barotrauma, but may also result in pneumovascular fistula by angioinvasion, as suspected by Mombrun and colleagues [[1]]. Barotrauma constitutes a relevant complication among ventilated COVID-19 patients and appears to occur more frequently in COVID-19-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) than in ARDS of other origin [[2]].
