Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, increasing evidence suggests that infected patients present a high incidence of thrombotic complications. We report a 67-year-old-woman admitted for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection. Chest CT images showed bilateral ground glass opacities, bilateral pulmonary embolism, right ventricular clot in transit and 2 thoracic aortic mural thrombus. Therapy was initiated with subcutaneous low-molecular-weight heparin, and the patient was discharged at 20 days asymptomatic. Complete resolution of the aortic thrombus was observed in a 1-month surveillance CT angiogram. Our case illustrates vascular complications in a COVID-19 patient and its effective treatment with anticoagulation.
自 COVID-19 大流行爆发以来,越来越多的证据表明感染患者存在较高的血栓并发症发生率。我们报告了一例 67 岁女性,因严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒 2 感染住院。胸部 CT 图像显示双侧磨玻璃影、双侧肺栓塞、右心室移行性血栓和 2 个胸主动脉壁血栓。给予皮下低分子量肝素治疗,患者在 20 天无症状时出院。1 个月的 CT 血管造影监测显示主动脉血栓完全溶解。本病例说明了 COVID-19 患者的血管并发症及其抗凝治疗的有效性。
