Corona-virus infection that arose from china is now a global pandemic. It presents with a variety of pulmonary manifestations, most commonly in the form of ground glass pulmonary lesions and opacities. Less common manifestation such as pnuemothorax has been reported by some authors. In this study we report a 56 years old man with Corona-virus disease presenting with tension pneumothorax, a rare and life-threatening complication of Corona-virus infection that has not been reported previously. In our case, after insertion of thoracostomy tube, the patient's symptoms improved. After about one year of Corona-virus pandemy, it still presents with some rare pulmonary and extra-pulmonary manifestations, so, familiarity with these manifestations is important for a correct diagnosis and treatment.
