RESUMO
The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus started in December 2019 in the city of Wuhan, in China's Hubei province. This virus quickly spread worldwide, and on March 11, 2020, it was declared a pandemic. Thrombosis, as a hallmark of severe disease, was recognized early as a cause of death; however, the exact pathophysiological mechanism is still not fully understood. We are reporting the case of a 46-year-old patient who presented with multiple arterial thromboses in the setting of an acute COVID-19 infection requiring systemic thrombolytic therapy and thrombectomy.
