Abstract
ARDILES LOPEZ, Diego et al. Acute aortic thrombosis associated with COVID-19 infection. Angiología [online]. 2022, vol.74, n.2, pp.78-81. Epub Apr 25, 2022. ISSN 1695-2987. https://dx.doi.org/10.20960/angiologia.00348.
Introduction:
COVID-19 infection has been associated with significant coagulation disorders, particularly hypercoagulable states. We present two cases of aortic thrombosis associated with COVID-19 infection and their outcome.
Case report:
case 1. Patient with asymptomatic aortic arch thrombosis. Case 2. Patient with aortoiliac thrombosis with acute lower extremity ischemia.
Discussion:
up to 20 % of patients with COVID-19 have some complication, including bleeding disorders. Surgical treatment of patients with COVID-19 infection and arterial complications poses a complex scenario when deciding on therapeutic conduct.
Keywords : COVID-19; Ischemia; Thrombectomy; Anticoagulants; Heparin.
