Abstract
The importance of prompt diagnosis and early stenting of an aortic rupture cannot be overemphasized. We present a case of thoracic aortic rupture in a middle-aged gentleman who had recently suffered coronavirus disease 2019. The case was further complicated by the development of an unexpected spinal epidural hematoma.
