Title: Acute limb ischemia and aortic mural thrombosis as primary manifestations of SARS-CoV-2 Cord-id: hurctbhs Document date: 2021_7_23
ID: hurctbhs
Snippet: Variable clinical presentation is emerging as a hallmark of the novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2. In addition to hypoxic respiratory failure, multiorgan dysfunction and septic shock, there are significant thromboembolic complications posited to be a result of diffuse coagulopathy associated with this viral infection. We report on a unique primary manifestation of SARS-CoV-2 infection presenting as acute limb ischemia and aortic mural thrombosis without clinical evidence of pulmonary disease. Despit
Document: Variable clinical presentation is emerging as a hallmark of the novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2. In addition to hypoxic respiratory failure, multiorgan dysfunction and septic shock, there are significant thromboembolic complications posited to be a result of diffuse coagulopathy associated with this viral infection. We report on a unique primary manifestation of SARS-CoV-2 infection presenting as acute limb ischemia and aortic mural thrombosis without clinical evidence of pulmonary disease. Despite best attempts at limb salvage with therapeutic anticoagulation, emergent aorto-iliac and distal embolectomies, the patient developed bilateral dry gangrene and ultimately required lower extremity amputations.
