ABSTRACT
Although SARS-CoV-2 mainly affects the respiratory system, its impact on other systems is becoming increasingly evident. Cardiovascular involvement is highly significant in the form of acute myocardial damage (AMD) and thromboembolic complications due to the hypercoagulable state produced by this infection. This clinical case presents the coexistence of several cardiovascular complications in a young patient, with no previous disease and recent COVID-19 infection. It also highlights the need for screening for cardiovascular complications by imaging techniques due to the increase in their incidence.
