A Peculiar Case of Small Bowel Stricture in a Coronavirus Disease 2019 Patient with Congenital Adhesion Band and Superior Mesenteric Vein Thrombosis

BACKGROUND: There is increasing evidence supporting coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related coagulopathy. In the available literature, only 2 cases of superior mesenteric vein thrombosis have been described. METHODS: We present a peculiar case of high-grade small bowel obstruction in a patient w...

description BACKGROUND: There is increasing evidence supporting coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related coagulopathy. In the available literature, only 2 cases of superior mesenteric vein thrombosis have been described. METHODS: We present a peculiar case of high-grade small bowel obstruction in a patient with COVID-19 infection. RESULTS: Exploratory laparotomy revealed a congenital adhesion band with associated focal bowel ischemia contributed by superior mesenteric vein thrombosis and positive lupus anticoagulant. CONCLUSIONS: It is important to consider the rare differential of mesenteric vein thrombosis and its related sequelae of mesenteric ischemia in a patient with COVID-19 who presents with abdominal pain.
