Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease typically manifested as a respiratory infection with a range of symptoms from a mild viral illness to a severe acute respiratory syndrome with multiorgan failure and death. We report a case of a young man presenting with compartment syndrome secondary to COVID-19 viral myositis, with a protracted hospital course further complicated by extensive venous and arterial thrombosis. As the coronavirus pandemic evolves, our understanding of the virus continues to improve; however, a host of unanswered questions remain about atypical presentation and management and treatment options.
2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)是一种传染病,通常表现为呼吸道感染,症状范围从轻度病毒性疾病到伴有多器官功能衰竭和死亡的严重急性呼吸综合征。我们报告一例年轻男性病例,该患者因COVID-19病毒性肌炎继发骨筋膜室综合征,住院病程迁延,因广泛的静脉和动脉血栓形成而进一步复杂化。随着冠状病毒大流行的演变,我们对该病毒的认识不断提高;然而,关于非典型表现、管理和治疗选择仍有许多未解答的问题。
