Ischemic colitis and short bowel disease due to choronavirus disease 2019 (COVID 19).


ABSTRACT: COVID-19 has spread worldwide, with more than 2.5 million cases and over 80,000 deaths reported by the end of April 2020. In addition to pulmonary symptoms, gastrointestinal symptoms have been increasingly recognized as part of the disease spectrum. COVID-19-associated coagulopathy has recently emerged as a major component of the disease, leading to high morbidity and mortality. Ischemic colitis has been reported to be associated with a hypercoagulable state, However few cases have been reported of COVID-19 associated with ischemic colitis. We would like to report a case of a 53 year old man with medical history of type 2 diabetes, and hypercholesterolemia, with ishchemic colitis as first manifestation of infection of COVID 19.
