Document: A novel coronavirus, called as SARS-CoV-2, caused multiple typical and atypical respiratory symptoms with several reported abdominal findings. We have described two cases of an unusual presentation of Covid-19. For patient 1, a woman aged 59-year-old had pneumonia and new onset abdominal pain. In patient 2, a 60-year-old man admitted with positive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test and abdominal pain from 2 weeks ago. Both lung and abdominal computed tomography (CT) were achieved in a few days. Acute ischemic mesenteritis and other abdominal complications were observed in the CT scan. Bowel necrosis in combination with peritonitis founded by laparotomy. Early diagnosis of abdominal complications in Covid-19 pneumonia can improve patient outcomes.
