We report the case of a COVID-19 patient presenting with fever, headache and dyspnea, evolving with severe acute abdominal pain. A contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan diagnosed splenic infarction. We emphasize the importance of seeking the identification of complications of SARS-CoV-2 infection, notably thromboembolic events, with the potential to reduce the morbidity and mortality of the disease. Studies on radiological aspects involving the spleen and splenic infarctions associated with COVID-19 are rare.
我们报告了一例 COVID-19 患者,其表现为发热、头痛和呼吸困难,并伴有严重的急性腹痛。增强 CT 扫描诊断为脾梗死。我们强调了识别 SARS-CoV-2 感染并发症(特别是血栓栓塞事件)的重要性,这有可能降低疾病的发病率和死亡率。涉及 COVID-19 相关脾和脾梗死的放射学方面的研究很少。
