Abstract

Here, The authors report a case of a 75-year-old female patient presented with hemoptysis. She had normal vasculature on a previous computed tomography scan when she was diagnosed with COVID-19. Four months after having COVID-19, and with a computed tomographic pulmonary angiography -assisted diagnosis, the patient was later diagnosed with PAA. PAAs have a wide nonspecific range of symptoms. The main diagnostic test is computed tomography angiography. Treatment is still controversial with no definite agreement on the management. COVID-19 infections can cause severe damage to blood vessels, especially in the context of other etiologies that can further damage the vasculature. This report demonstrates the importance of patient follow-up and monitoring post-COVID-19 infection in reducing further complications and mortality.
