Sumario:Spontaneous gas effusion unrelated to assisted ventilation is a newly recognized complication of Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The objective of the present study was to examine the incidence, risk factors and the outcomes of Spontaneous gas effusions. 610 cases were analyzable, with 3 patients developing spontaneous gas effusion. This latter was associated with increased intubation and a trend towards death in one case. Drainage was required in two cases. In conclusion, spontaneous gas effusions appeared to be a rare complication of severe acute respiratory syndrome. Further research is needed to investigate its pathogenesis.
