Abstract
We present three cases with an atypical clinical course of organizing pneumonia (OP) secondary to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Three patients were discharged with satisfactory improvement after standard steroid therapy for COVID-19. Shortly after the completion of treatment, the patients experienced a flare-up of symptoms. Imaging results showed new lesions in the lungs. Transbronchial lung cryobiopsy showed histological findings consistent with OP in all cases. Steroids were administered, and a good therapeutic response was observed. This report is the first to describe pathologically confirmed OP that developed after recovery from COVID-19. Careful follow-up is advisable for patients who have recovered from COVID-19.
