Résumé
Pneumatocele is a cavity, which may develop rarely as a complication of pneumonia. It is more common in patients requiring ventilation support. After COVID-19 pneumonia, there are only several case reports described. Our case report is about a male patient without any serious commorbities. The patient had bilateral multiple pneumatocele which have formed in postacute phase of moderate course of COVID-19. Other possible causes have been exluded by a complex examination. During the follow-up there was a clear gradual spontaneous resorption of the finding. The patient is still in very good clinical condition.
