Alveolar proteinosis is a rare lung disease characterized by the accumulation of protein-lipid complexes in the alveoli due to impaired surfactant utilization by alveolar macrophages. The frequency is from 2 to 4 cases per 1 million adult population. We present an observation of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis in a patient with a history of coronavirus pneumonia.
