Here, we report two cases presented with spontaneous PM associated with COVID-19 pneumonia.A 58-year-old female patient was admitted to the Emergency Department (ED) with dyspnea, hoarseness, myalgia, and cough. A chest CT scan revealed subcutaneous emphysema, diffuse PM, bilateral diffuse areas of ground-glass opacity, and consolidations. The patient was transferred to the critical care unit. In critical intensive care, the patient developed multi-organ failure and expired on the 10th day. A 34-year-old male patient admitted to the ED with dyspnea and cough. A chest CT scan revealed diffuse PM, bilateral diffuse areas of ground-glass opacity, and consolidations. The patient was transferred to the critical care unit. His progress was uneventful and he was discharged after 12 days. Patients suspected of PM should be examined closely during the differential diagnosis of chest pain, dyspnea, subcutaneous emphysema, and various lung- and heart-induced states. Patients diagnosed with spontaneous PM should be hospitalized for observation because the condition can be associated with complications, including death.

Studies conducted have shown that it shows its effect on different tissues through Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2 receptors. In particular, gastrointestinal system symptoms have started to attract more attention. We present two COVID-19 cases, aged 82 and 70, presenting with acute pancreatitis without any other risk factors. An 82-year-old female patient had a fatal outcome despite the treatment, while a 70-year-old female patient was discharged for outpatient follow-up. While COVID-19 patients are typically admitted with symptoms of respiratory system, some patients may have symptoms such as nausea-vomiting, diarrhoea and abdominal pain.

A 42-year-old female patient was admitted to the emergency department on the 4th day of PCR test positivity with decreased consciousness. Patient with a Glasgow coma score of 6 (E1M3V2). The patient's vital signs were stable and there was no abnormality in his laboratory. No pathology was found in the brain tomography to explain the loss of consciousness. In MRI evaluation, the patient was diagnosed with Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) according to radiological and clinical information. The standard Covid-19 treatment added to the antiedema treatment was applied to the patient. Brain MRI was repeated four days later and previous MRI findings showed regression. The patient was discharged to the ward with stable neurological status on the 22nd day of hospitalization. PRES is a rare but serious complication in Covid-19. Especially in the Covid-19 intensive care unit, intubation and sedation suppress the clinical picture, and the difficulty in getting patients on magnetic resonance imaging can complicate the diagnosis. Therefore, PRES should be kept in mind in the presence of neurological symptoms such as encephalitis, meningitis, encephalopathy and cerebrovascular disease.","PeriodicalId":41189,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Emergency Medicine Case Reports","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45486760","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
