We describe three patients with COVID-19 who presented with an acute vascular event rather than with typical respiratory symptoms. These patients were all subsequently found to have laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 infections as the likely cause of their thrombotic event. The primary presentation of COVID-19 infection as a thrombotic event rather than with respiratory symptoms has not been described elsewhere. Our cases and discussion highlight the thrombotic complications caused by COVID-19; we discuss management of these patients and explore the role of anticoagulation in patients diagnosed with COVID-19.
我们描述了三名新冠肺炎患者,他们表现出急性血管事件而非典型的呼吸道症状。这些患者随后均被实验室确诊为新冠肺炎感染,这可能是其血栓形成事件的原因。新冠肺炎感染主要表现为血栓形成事件而非呼吸道症状,这在其他地方尚未有过描述。我们的病例及讨论突出了新冠肺炎引起的血栓形成并发症;我们讨论了这些患者的治疗,并探讨了抗凝在新冠肺炎确诊患者中的作用。
