Abstract:
A 40-year-old man was admitted with a diagnosis of COVID-19 pneumonia. Although most of multiple ground-glass opacities and consolidations on computed tomography improved, a round ground-glass opacity with consolidation remained unchanged and was suspected to be a part-solid nodule of lung adenocarcinoma. Pathologic diagnosis of resected tumor was papillary adenocarcinoma.
