Abstract
Covid 19 is an acute respiratory disease caused by a novel type of Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) that was first detected in Wuhan, Hubei Province of China. Its most common symptoms are fever, cough, and weakness; and in the early stages, there may not be findings on chest computed tomography. In pulmonary involvement, peripheral ground-glass areas, a cobblestone appearance, consolidated areas, and interlobular septal thickening, which are usually prominent in the lower lobes may be seen in thorax computed tomography. Consolidation, solid nodules, halo sign, inverted halo sign, vascular enlargement, subpleural line, air bronchograms, and bronchiectasis are other less common findings. In our case, we aimed to present our 69 years old female patient with bilateral nodular densities on thoracic CT and transthoracic fine-needle aspiration biopsy result was reported as lesions compatible with interstitial fibrosis due to Covid-19 inflammation.
