The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus started in December 2019 in the city of Wuhan, in China's Hubei province. This virus quickly spread worldwide, and on March 11, 2020, it was declared a pandemic. Thrombosis, as a hallmark of severe disease, was recognized early as a cause of death; however, the exact pathophysiological mechanism is still not fully understood. We are reporting the case of a 46-year-old patient who presented with multiple arterial thromboses in the setting of an acute COVID-19 infection requiring systemic thrombolytic therapy and thrombectomy.
由严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2（SARS-CoV-2）引起的新型冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行于2019年12月在中国湖北省武汉市爆发。这种病毒迅速在全球传播，并于2020年3月11日被宣布为大流行。血栓形成作为重症疾病的一个标志，很早就被确认为死亡原因；然而，确切的病理生理机制仍未完全明确。我们报告一例46岁患者，在急性COVID-19感染背景下出现多处动脉血栓形成，需要进行全身溶栓治疗和血栓切除术。
