| Abstrakt: | We present a 47-year-old male without a relevant history or past respiratory diseases. He debuted with an acute, non-complicated COVID-19 infection, and later he started with mMRC-2 dyspnea, accompanied by a non-expectorant cough of four months evolution. A CT thoracic scan showed a dilatation of the aerial homogenous space and a well-defined anterior left pericardiac level, and a pericardial left bulla was diagnosed. The patient was treated with surgical intervention by video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery and had an adequate post-surgical evolution. The PPT must be managed by a multidisciplinary team with the definitive treatment of surgical resection. Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist.
