Systemic Thrombolysis as Initial Treatment of COVID-19 Associated Acute Aortoiliac and Lower Extremity Arterial Thrombosis

SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) patients with associated thromboembolic events have demonstrated poor outcomes despite the use of anticoagulation therapy and surgical intervention. We present a COVID-19 patient with acute limb ischemia, secondary to extensive thrombosis of an aortic aneurysm, iliac arteries,...

description SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) patients with associated thromboembolic events have demonstrated poor outcomes despite the use of anticoagulation therapy and surgical intervention. We present a COVID-19 patient with acute limb ischemia, secondary to extensive thrombosis of an aortic aneurysm, iliac arteries, and infrainguinal arteries. Initial treatment with systemic thrombolysis, which restored patency of the aortoiliac occlusion, was followed by open thrombectomies of the infrainguinal occlusions.
