Multiple arterial thrombosis in a COVID-19 patient

Abstract

SARS-COV-2 infection primarily affects the respiratory system with emerging complications, but can also involve other systems and organs, as well as cause coagulopathy. Cases of deep vein thrombosis with pulmonary thromboembolic complications are commonly reported in critically ill patients with COVID-19, much less frequently encountered is thrombosis in the arterial bed. Particularly rare are cases of concomitant thrombosis in multiple sites. We present a case with multiple arterial thrombosis in a patient with COVID-19 and increased cardiovascular risk
