ABSTRACT

COVID-19 can affect many systems out of the respiratory system. In this article, a COVID-19 case with fever and isolated severe thrombocytopenia without pulmonary involvement is presented. A 25-year-old male patient admitted to our hospital with complaints of fever and headache was hospitalized for close follow-up because of severe thrombocytopenia in peripheral blood and a positive result of SARS-CoV-2 PCR in the combined nasal and throat swab sample. Daily hemogram follow-up was done. The patient, whose fever decreased under COVID-19 treatment and whose thrombocyte count tended to increase, was discharged on the 5th day of treatment. Other tests performed in terms of thrombocytopenia etiology were negative. In particular, it is not enough to suspect COVID-19 in patients with only respiratory system findings and fever, but rarer presentations should be kept in mind.
