Abstract: Objective To describe the diagnosis and treatment of a patient with severe novel coronavirus pneumonia, and to improve the understanding and management of clinicians on novel coronavirus pneumonia. Methods The onset, development, treatment and outcome of a patient with severe 2019 novel coronavirus pneumonia were retrospectively analyzed and relevant literatures were reviewed. Results At the beginning of the disease, the patient presented fever and dry cough, and later the disease progressed to dyspnea. Chest CT showed bilateral exudation of the lung. Lopinavir/ritonavir, IFN-α and immunoglobulin were given to the patient according to the expert groups opinion. The pneumonia was cured and the patient was discharged two weeks later. Conclusion Appropriate management strategies are effective on diagnosis and treatment of new coronavirus pneumonia.

Key words: 2019 novel coronavirus, Severe pneumonia, Interferon α-2b, Lopinavir/ritonavir, Immunoglobulin
