Two uncommon complications of COVID-19 in same patient: MINOCA and pneumothorax

Abstract

COVID-19 has several clinical manifestations in the respiratory system and the cardiovascular system. Pneu-mothorax and myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) are two different cli-nical complications in COVID-19. However, pneumothorax and MINOCA have not been described yet in the same patient until now.A COVID-19 patient was admitted due to respiratory distress. He had pneumothorax and MINOCA.We re-port how we proceeded with diagnosis and treatment of pneumothorax and MINOCA. Respiratory and cardiovascular system manifestations of COVID-19 have made numerous clinical appearan-ces. MINOCA and pneumothorax are rare clinical appearances, but they can be seen in COVID-19 as shown in our case.
