A case of right atrial pseudoaneurysm with a prediagnosis of COVID-19 pneumonia resulting in severe respiratory failure

Abstract

A patient suspected of Covid-19 pneumonia, in whom pneumonia lesions were first detected by chest computed tomography, was further evaluated by transthoracic echocardiography due to cardiomegaly. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a large right atrial-related ruptured pseudoaneurysm. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography ruled out bilateral multiple lung nodules and pulmonary embolism associated with mural thrombus in the right atrial pseudoaneurysm.
