Abstract
The typical findings on CT in patients affected by novel COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) pneumonia are characterized by ground-glass opacities and/or air space consolidation mainly bilateral and peripherical in distribution, including crazy paving pattern and reversed halo sign. We hereby describe a case of an adolescent male tested positive for COVID-19 with mild respiratory symptoms and presenting with pneumomediastinum as the only CT finding.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
