| Abstract | Common findings of COVID-19 pneumonia on chest CT images include ground-glass opacities and organizing pneumonia. Here, we present a patient with a history of lung cancer who came to our center for re-staging CT studies, which showed a solitary peripheral lung mass suggestive of lung cancer. While being evaluated for the mass, the patient developed respiratory failure due to COVID-19 pneumonia. After treatment for COVID-19 and recovery, CT showed complete resolution of the solitary peripheral lung mass. This case highlights that COVID-19 can, on occasion, present with CT findings that mimic those of lung cancer. |
