- Abstract
The most common pulmonary infections associated with the new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) called COVID-19 trigger a major public health problem in Brazil, generating costs for services, due to their degrees of expansion and involvement. The aim of the present study was to report common findings in elderly patients in a private clinic in the city of Petrolina - PE in an imaging exam and to review the literature regarding pneumonia associated with post-COVID-19. The study was determined by means of a case report, together with findings from the literature in the Scielo database. In the report, the patient has a diagnosis of post-COVID-19 pneumonia with important findings on chest imaging. In short, it was found that the diagnosis must be made in addition to clinical tools with correlations to the radiological findings and the patient's symptomatology.
