Severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) as a respiratory tract infection has been noted to be a causative agent for acute respiratory distress syndrome, shock, and multiple organ failure. It is also being suggested that COVID-19 results in serious systemic coagulopathies similar to disseminated intravascular coagulation. We describe a case of severe arterial thrombosis induced by COVID-19 infection along with its pathological implications.
2019年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)作为一种呼吸道感染,已被确认为急性呼吸窘迫综合征、休克和多器官功能衰竭的病原体。也有观点认为,COVID-19会导致类似于弥散性血管内凝血的严重全身性凝血病。我们描述了一例由COVID-19感染引起的严重动脉血栓形成病例及其病理意义。
