  • OBJECTIVE: To describe the form of severe clinical presentation of SARS-COV-2 infection in the early phase, also the timely treatment of COVID-19 pneumonia in postoperative pulmonary lobectomy. METHOD: Case report where the data were extracted from the clinical history and is in accordance with the SCARE 2018 criteria. DESCRIPTION OF THE CASE: A 36-year-old man, with no significant history, who presented fever and mucopurulent expectoration of 1 month of evolution, received antibiotics for 4 weeks without response to treatment. Chest tomography shows cystic image with heterogeneous content in the left lower lobe. We decided to opt for surgery, previously 1 PCR in RT and 7 serological tests for COVID- 19 were performed, the result of which was non-reactive. In the postoperative period, the patient developed fever and dyspnea on mild exertion, so a new serological test for COVID-19 was performed: IgM / IgG reactive, in addition chest tomography showed both lungs with \'cracy paving\' pattern. DISCUSSION: The serological tests did not contribute to a timely diagnosis of COVID-19 and generated confusion. We used oxygen therapy, broad spectrum antibiotics since the diagnosis of COVID-19. Likewise, respiratory physiotherapy was intensified even after discharge. CONCLUSION: The early diagnosis and use of antibiotics at doses of sepsis, associated with corticosteroid pulses and respiratory physiotherapy improve COVID-19 pneumonia in postoperative lung surgery.
