The insertion/deletion polymorphism of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene, previously described in association with adult respiratory distress syndrome, may play a key role in lung injury in patients with SARS-COV2. In this paper we describe 26 patients with severe respiratory failure related to COVID-19 pneumonia that underwent genetic screening for ACE polymorphisms.
