Premature twin neonates with a Coronavirus-19 positive mother present with an unusual pattern of intestinal ischemia.

COVID-19 infection during pregnancy is associated with premature rupture of membranes, preterm delivery, and low birth weight. It has also been associated with hypercoagulability and vasculitis in certain patients. This article reports two premature twins born from a COVID-19 mother who presented with an unusual pattern of ileal ischemia and perforation within 24 hours of each other. We suggest that maternal infection with the novel coronavirus might lead to this atypical distribution of intestinal pathology.
