Aortic thrombus with multiple visceral and extremity emboli post Covid-19 with lung cancer

Abstract

The aim of the present study is to present a case report of a patient who developed aortic thrombosis with multiple embolizations to kidneys, spleen, superior mesenteric and extremities and a lung tumor mass. A 56-year-old patient, she reports that 45 days ago she had Covid-19 and no need for hospitalization. Now, she presented with abdominal pain and was hospitalized and underwent an angio tomography of the chest, abdomen, aortic thrombosis and emboli in several viscera and extremities. She was medically treated for visceral emboli, but one week later she had an extremity embolism that was treated with an embolectomy. And a lung biopsy revealed neoplasia. Post-Covid 19 aortic thrombus can result in multiple visceral and extremity embolic events, associated with lung cancer, an incidental finding can occur and serves as a warning to these patients.
