A Case of Acute Parotitis Associated with COVID-19.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) emerged in China at the end of 2019 and spread worldwide. A sixty-three-year-old female patient was admitted to the hospital six days after she tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 with complaints of cough, shortness of breath, and myalgia. After seven days, both parotid gland sites developed swelling, tenderness, and pain. The ultrasonography revealed acute parotitis bilaterally. Viral serological tests were negative. Therefore, COVID-19 infection was considered the cause of acute parotitis. The patient was discharged after recovery. This case report emphasized that acute non-suppurative parotitis may develop due to COVID-19 infection as an atypical manifestation.
