Sumario:Thromboembolic events have been reported in the hospitalized patient since the beginning of the COVID‐19 pandemics. ICU‐admitted patients demonstrated a significantly higher risk of developing VTE. Although evidence of arterial thrombosis was less common in ICU‐admitted patients, consequences were typically more severe, including limb loss and death. This study reports another ICU‐admitted patient with lower extremity arterial thrombosis diagnosed with COVID‐19.
