ABSTRACT
Subacute mesenteric venous thrombosis is vascular complication commonly associated with hypercoagulability, resulting in abdominal pain and ischemia of intestines. We report a 44-year-oldo male without relevant history and COVID-19 disease who developed abdominal pain after onset of respiratory symptoms. Imaging studies demonstrated abnormal findings on Doppler ultrasoud and computed tomography scan compatible with thrombotic disease, successfully treated with anticoagulation therapy. This case exemplifies the heterogeneous presentation of late thrombotic complications in COVID-19 and the relevance of prophylactic measures against hypercoagulability.
