Background: In times of coronavirus, a patient with respiratory symptoms whose chest CT scan reveals ground-glass opacities, COVID-19 may seem an obvious diagnosis.
Case Description: At the (currently assumed) peak of the coronavirus crisis, a 12-year-old boy was admitted to the hospital twice for severe respiratory symptoms. A chest CT scan revealed ground-glass opacities.
Objective: To evaluate the growth, health, and motor development of children born after preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD).
Design: Observational cohort study and comparison of 5-year-old children born after PGD to similar aged children born after IVF/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and children from families with a genetic disorder born after natural conception (NC).
Setting: University hospital.
