Portal Vein Thrombosis—a Rare Complication of SARS-CoV-2 Infection

The SARS-CoV-2 is the causative organism for COVID-19 disease. It primarily affects the respiratory system. With time, some new extra-pulmonary manifestations of COVID-19 disease have been identified. Recent studies have shown that patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection may have a hypercoagulable state...

description The SARS-CoV-2 is the causative organism for COVID-19 disease. It primarily affects the respiratory system. With time, some new extra-pulmonary manifestations of COVID-19 disease have been identified. Recent studies have shown that patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection may have a hypercoagulable state which explains the increased incidence of thrombotic events in these patients without any known risk factors. The most common thrombotic event described in these patients is pulmonary embolism. Intra-abdominal thrombosis is a rare thrombotic complication of COVID-19 disease. Here, we report a case of COVID-19 disease associated with acute portal vein thrombosis.
