Background: Knowledge of respiratory physiology is essential for the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory diseases. During the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, face-to-face education was inadequate, leading to the implementation of virtual programs for pulmonary fellows from Latin America.
Objective: This study describes our experience with the implementation of a virtual education program involving pulmonary function tests (PFTs) for pulmonary fellows in Latin America.

Purpose: To present a case of a complicated posterior melanocytoma that was successfully treated with intravitreal bevacizumab.
