Acute Liver Infarct with a Superimposed Liver Abscess as a Consequence of Hypercoagulable State in a Patient with COVID-19 without Respiratory Manifestations.

COVID-19 infection has been associated, particularly in severely ill patients requiring hospitalization, with a hypercoagulable state. The case presented herein was a 66-year-old man with SARS-CoV-2 infection who did not have any respiratory symptoms. He presented with the following clinical manifestations: portal vein and hepatic artery thrombosis, liver infarction, and a superimposed abscess of the liver. In this case, early detection and the administration of anticoagulants and antibiotics led to a significant improvement within weeks of the diagnosis. We encourage physicians to be aware of COVID-19-associated hypercoagulable state and its potential complications, regardless of the acuity of the presentation or the absence of respiratory symptoms.

Successful Treatment of Radial Artery Pseudoaneurysm After Transradial Cardiac Catheterization With Continuous Compression Therapy by a TR Band® Radial Compression Device.

Arterial pseudoaneurysm formation after transradial cardiac catheterization is a rare post-procedural complication occurring in less than 0.1% of radial arterial access. While the data on the management of femoral pseudoaneurysms is extensive, few studies have evaluated how these techniques apply for small vessel arterial pseudoaneurysms. We present the case of an octogenarian man with a radial artery pseudoaneurysm after transradial coronary intervention that failed initial compression therapy, and surgical intervention was avoided by applying continuous compression therapy with a TR Band® radial compression device.
