Abstract:

The new coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has been observed with coagulopathy associated with an increase in the frequency of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and lung embolism (PE). The presentation of this phenomenon discussed the bilateral common PE phenomenon found after light COVID-19. At the age of fifty and seven, he applied to our clinic with an increasing breathing difficulty. A genetic risk factor was not identified. Four and a half months ago, COVID-19 was diagnosed with mild symptoms. Then four times for an effort was addressed to our clinic due to dyspnoe, other reasons were excluded, due to the high levels of d-dimer, the two thorax computer tomography angiography (BTA) and perfusion syntigraphs were not emboliated. The long-lasting PE preventive treatment was interrupted 33 days ago. In the patient with a re-tracking BTA due to an increase in D-dimer levels, a trombus was detected in the bilateral main pulmonary arteries. As a result, even in patients with mild COVID-19 disease, continued symptoms, high D-dimer levels and previous PE history may be a trigger for longer COVID-19 coagulopathy.
