| الملخص: | <p dir="ltr">Severe COVID-19 pneumonia and methemoglobinemia share many presenting clinical features, and it is unclear whether this may have been predominantly due to a dramatic increase in the use of oxidizing medications, which were used to treat COVID-19 during the pandemic, or COVID-19 itself. Initial correct assessment is sometimes difficult, particularly if the clinical judgment has been confounded towards the emerging disease. To highlight such a dilemma, we report a case of COVID-19 pneumonia and concomitant significant methemoglobinemia to raise awareness of the emergence of methemoglobinemia amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.</p><h2>Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: IDCases<br>License: <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.idcr.2023.e01705" target="_blank">https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.idcr.2023.e01705</a></p> |
