Resolution of Eosinophilic Pneumonia after Coronavirus Disease 2019 without Systemic Corticosteroids.

ABSTRACT

Pulmonary and extrapulmonary complications after coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have been major public health concerns during the COVID-19 pandemic. Although post-COVID-19 pulmonary manifestations cover a wide spectrum, eosinophilic pneumonia (EP) has rarely been reported. To date, only four cases of EP potentially triggered by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection have been reported, all of which required systemic corticosteroid therapy. We herein report the first case of post-COVID-19 EP resolution without systemic corticosteroid therapy. We also review the literature regarding EP associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection and vaccination.
