ABSTRACT
Despite being relatively uncommon, abdominal wall hematomas can occur due to blunt trauma, post-percutaneous procedures, anticoagulation, and even spontaneous bleeding. It can present with varying symptoms from acute abdominal pain to life-threatening bleeding causing hypovolemia and shock. With the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, affected patients developed coagulopathy putting patients at risk of venous thromboembolism or excessive bleeding. Herein, we report a case of spontaneous multiple abdominal wall hematomas in a patient after a COVID-19 infection, which was managed conservatively.
