SAINZ-GONZALEZ, F; MARTINEZ-IZQUIERDO, A  and  ABDELKADER-ABU-SNEIMEH, A. Acute arterial ischemia in patients with COVID 19 infection. Sanid. Mil. [online]. 2020, vol.76, n.2, pp.71-73.  Epub Feb 01, 2021. ISSN 1887-8571.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s1887-85712020000200004.

The infection caused by the novel coronavirus SARS-COV-2 (COVID-19) which was declared global pandemic by the WHO has showed to be a highly thrombotic disease in some patients, presenting with venous and arterial complications such as deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism and acute ischemia affecting patients with and without previous diseases. We describe four cases of COVID-19 patients treated in Gomez Ulla Hospital of Madrid during the pandemic. Clinical manifestations and outcome are compared with other similar series.

Keywords : Coronavirus COVID-19; hypercoagulable states; Acute arterial ischemia and exacerbated chronic ischemia.
