Amiodarone-induced organizing pneumonia mimicking COVID-19: a case report.

Background: Differential diagnosis of interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) during the COVID-19 pandemic is difficult, due to similarities in clinical and radiological presentation between COVID-19 and other ILDs on the one hand, and frequent false-negative swab results on the other. We describe a rare form of interstitial and organizing pneumonia resembling COVID-19, emphasizing some key aspects to focus on to get the right diagnosis and treat the patient properly.

Case Presentation: A 76-year-old man presented with short breath and dry cough in the midst of the COVID-19 outbreak.
