Purpose. Description and illustration of the most common alternative causes of shortness of breath, cough, and acute chest pain in pandemic COVID-19 conditions. Material and methods. Authors evaluated results of the retrospective single-center study and instrumental data of 67 patients with complaints of sudden chest pain, cough and shortness of breath. For patients admitted to the hospital between March, 27 and June, 30, 2020, the first stage of diagNosis was made with the performed multispiral computed tomography (MSCT) of the chest, confirming the presence of pulmonary manifestations of COVID-19. The study did Not include patients with pneumothorax identified at the pre-And hospital stages. We describe early radiographic changes in the chest organs, main vessels, and coronary bed in patients with CT-confirmed COVID-19 admitted to O.M. Filatov Municipal Clinical Hospital No. 15, Moscow for sudden chest pain, cough, and shortness of breath. Results. In CT of the chest organs, combinations of COVID-19 and pulmonary artery thromboembolism, central/peripheral lung cancer, and acute aortic syndrome manifestations were most common. Combinations of radiation techniques in pandemic settings are COVID-19 required by patients with the acute coronary syndrome. However, it will be possible to analyze all cases of a combination of acute chest pain and sudden shortness of breath in patients with COVID-19 only after processing an extensive array of data. Conclusion. In pandemic conditions, COVID-19 performing standard imaging methods should be Not lost about the most frequent causes of chest pain and sudden shortness of breath, complementing native MSCT with contrasting enhancement in suspected pathology of the main arteries, and small circulation in high-risk patients.
