Prevalence and significance of mediastinal lymphadenopathy in patients with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus-2 infection.

Abstract

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus-2 is the causative factor of Coronavirus Disease 2019. Early in the pandemic, mediastinal lymphadenopathy was not considered to be a significant radiologic finding of the SARS-COV-2 disease. Nevertheless, most recent studies associate mediastinal lymphadenopathy with more severe COVID-19 disease and poorer patient outcomes.
