COVID-19 Induced Bilateral Lower Limb Ischemia and Visceral Infarcts

Emerging cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2) have been associated with a variety of disorders including respiratory failure, immune reactive syndrome, multiorgan failure, and hypercoagulable states. COVID-19 induces...

description Emerging cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2) have been associated with a variety of disorders including respiratory failure, immune reactive syndrome, multiorgan failure, and hypercoagulable states. COVID-19 induces a severe global inflammatory response which can result in endothelial damage leading to hypercoagulability. Most COVID-19 cases of hypercoagulable states reported venous thrombosis. We report here a case of a 65-year-old Hispanic male diagnosed with bilateral acute lower limb ischemia and renal infarcts secondary to a severe COVID-19 infection.
