Abstract:

Purpose: This study was aimed at reverse assessment of healthy adult phenomena that have been diagnosed with histologically verified organic pneumonia in the post-COVID-19 period, and that have lasted at least three months of breathing fatigue and fatigue. Tools and Methods: From September 2020 to May 2021 we included 17 patients who were hospitalized with breathing disorder and insufficiency complaints, diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection at least three months before the last application date and diagnosed with both radiological and pathological organized pneumonia. Results: All patients were previously hospitalized due to COVID-19. The average period between hospitalization due to COVID-19 diagnosis and organized pneumonia was 4 months. In our patients, there was the presence of bilateral lobular, subpleural dancitis, which varied from the ice glass to the central/under lung consolidation, which is a typical radiological feature of organized pneumonia. All patients were subjected to the pulmonary partial lobular excision process. In all patients in the lungs parankymia, intraalveolar defects, characterized by granulation tissue and fibroblast proliferation, were detected. In patients with COVID-19 pneumonia, we believe that secondary secondary organic pneumonia should be considered especially in the presence of permanent or repeated respiratory symptoms and continued lung infiltration. Therefore, it will be possible to provide the right medical approaches instead of unnecessary surgical interventions.
