RESUMEN
La pandemia por COVID-19, ocasionada por el virus SARS-CoV-2, ha producido una alta incidencia de coagulopatía asociada a un aumento en la morbi-mortalidad en los pacientes que la padecen. La coagulopatía resulta principalmente trombótica, determinada por daño endotelial, inflamación, trampas extracelulares de neutrófilos, activación de macrófagos y tormenta de citocinas que mantienen el círculo vicioso de la inflamación y la trombosis. Los eventos trombóticos observados durante la COVID-19 fueron principalmente tromboembólicos venosos e infarto del miocardio; sin embargo, la evidencia mostró el incremento de una complicación vascular que no había sido descrita la trombosis arterial periférica aguda. El objetivo de este artículo fue exponer la infrecuencia de la isquemia arterial aguda como forma de presentación clínica de la COVID-19. Se presenta un paciente masculino de 54 años, con dolor intenso localizado a nivel de la extremidad inferior derecha, gradiente térmico, palidez, cianosis distal e impotencia funcional, con diagnóstico clínico y ecográfico de isquemia arterial aguda de causa trombótica del sector arterial femoral e ilíaco externo derechos. La evolución del paciente resultó satisfactoria y se mantiene bajo seguimiento médico para evaluar la permeabilidad del sector arterial desobstruido(AU)
ABSTRACT
The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, has produced a high incidence of coagulopathy associated with an increase in morbidity and mortality in patients suffering from it. Coagulopathy is mainly thrombotic, determined by endothelial damage, inflammation, extracellular neutrophil traps, macrophage activation and cytokine storm that maintain the vicious cycle of inflammation and thrombosis. The thrombotic events observed during COVID-19 were mainly venous thromboembolic and myocardial infarction; however, the evidence showed an increase in a vascular complication that had not been described acute peripheral arterial thrombosis. The objective of this article was to expose the infrequency of acute arterial ischemia as a form of clinical presentation of COVID-19. A 54-year-old male patient with severe pain located at the level of the right lower extremity, thermal gradient, pallor, distal cyanosis and functional impotence, with a clinical and ultrasound diagnosis of acute arterial ischemia of thrombotic cause of the right femoral and iliac arterial sector is presented. The evolution of the patient was satisfactory and he is kept under medical follow-up to evaluate the permeability of the unobstructed arterial sector(AU)
