SARS-CoV-2 is the viral agent of COVID-19, a pandemic that surfaced in 2019. Although predominantly a respiratory ailment, patients with COVID-19 can have gastrointestinal (GI) and hepatobiliary manifestations. These manifestations are often mild and transient, but they can be severe and consequential. In the GI tract, ischemic enterocolitis is the most common and significant consequence of COVID-19. In the liver, the reported pathologic findings may often be related to consequences of severe systemic viral infection, but reports of hepatitis presumed to be due to SARS-CoV-2 suggest that direct viral infection of the liver may be a rare complication of COVID-19. In both the GI tract and liver, lingering symptoms of GI or hepatic injury after resolution of pulmonary infection may be part of the evolving spectrum of long COVID.
SARS-CoV-2 是 COVID-19 的病毒病原体,这是一种 2019 年出现的大流行疾病。尽管 COVID-19 主要是一种呼吸道疾病,但 COVID-19 患者可能会出现胃肠道(GI)和肝胆系统表现。这些表现通常较轻且短暂,但也可能严重并产生后果。在胃肠道中,缺血性肠炎是 COVID-19 最常见和最重要的后果。在肝脏中,报告的病理发现可能通常与严重全身性病毒感染的后果有关,但由于 SARS-CoV-2 而推测的肝炎报告表明,肝脏的直接病毒感染可能是 COVID-19 的罕见并发症。在胃肠道和肝脏中,肺部感染消退后胃肠道或肝损伤的持续症状可能是长 COVID 不断发展的表现谱的一部分。
