Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, several small cohorts have reported the recurrent occurrence of venous thromboembolic disease (VTE), particulary pulmonary embolism, in serious patients hospitalized in intensive care units. We report the case of a patient who presented a minor COVID-19 infection treated on an outpatient basis with good clinical resolution. She developed a pulmonary embolism three weeks after the onset of symptoms. When she was admitted to the emergency room, the two real time reverse transcription polymerase chain reactions (RT-PCRs) performed were negative, moreover the anti-SARS-CoV-2 Immunoglobulin Gs (IgGs) serological test was positive and the chest scanner without and with injection of contrast product showed specific images of COVID-19 with intermediate pulmonary embolism according to the classification of the European society of cardiology (ESC). This observation is interesting since there are not many studies which address the question of the occurrence of late pulmonary embolism in patients with non-severe COVID-19 and raises the discussion on the criteria for the initiation of thromboembolic prophylaxis treatment at the first diagnosis of the disease and duration of that treatment.
