The next day, the patient was sent for a new chest radiograph that shows fully expanded right lung with parenchymal shadows as seen in Figure 3 and basic blood investigations that were normal. In this case, spontaneous pneumothorax was developed after 21 days of initial COVID-19 symptoms and after the result of PCR was negative. 4 While in Burcin et al and Suphi et al case reports, both patients were present with spontaneous pneumothorax in addition to other features of COVID-19 infection initially. org/0000-0003-3748-681X Ahmed Salih Alshewered https://orcid.	./cache/cord-334122-3c1i25vc.txt	./txt/cord-334122-3c1i25vc.txt
