    Document: In late 2019, the world encountered an unexpected new virus, resulting in a highly challenging new pandemic. The case presented here involves a 73-year-old man experiencing fever and respiratory distress, who was ultimately diagnosed with COVID-19. During the course of his hospitalization, the patient developed acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), followed by being intubated due to his breathing difficulties. Because of variations in the patient’s clinical features, we decided to perform hemoperfusion to remove cytokines. Afterward, his clinical status improved significantly, and he was discharged in stable condition. However, 26 days later, fever and respiratory distress manifested again. After evaluation, pulmonary thromboembolism was confirmed through computed tomography (ie, CT scan).
