Sumario:The novel coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 is a highly contagious disease that has rapidly spread throughout the world. In addition to respiratory complications, the virus has also been linked to damage other organ systems as well as coagulopathy. The features and clinical spectrum of COVID-19 are continually emerging, with growing evidence of its connection to thrombosis in various systems. In this case report, the authors present a case of COVID-19 infection in a young male patient who had superior mesenteric artery thrombosis with pneumatosis intestinalis complicated by hepatic portal venous gas.
