Acute Mesenteric Ischemia in a Patient with COVID-19: A Case Report
Open accessAbstract
The severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) presents clinical manifestations similar to the influenza, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV), and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS-CoV). However, in the course of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), various pathological complications of high clinical significance have remained unknown. Impaired blood supply to the visceral vascular system can cause serious life-threatening acute damage. We report a case of extensive acute mesenteric ischemia associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection confirmed in a patient hospitalized in Amin Hospital – a COVID-19 referral center in Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Isfahan, Iran. This case highlights the importance of paying attention to serious and less common or less known clinical manifestations other than fever, dry cough, dyspnea, and myalgia.

Patients with COVID-19 infection presented with symptoms that mimic the gastrointestinal symptoms of acute mesenteric ischemia, and the devastating effect and lethal complications of COVID-19 on the patient's general condition further complicate the management of acute mesenteric ischemia in those with active COVID-19 pneumonic infection.
“Patients with COVID 19 infection presented with symptoms that mimic the gastrointestinal symtoms of acute mesenteric ischemia. The devastating effect and lethat complications of the COVID 19 infection on the patient's general condition futher complicates the management of acute mesenteric ischemia in those patients with active COVID 19 pneumonic infection [10, 11].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
