Abstract
COVID-19 coagulopathy is a hypercoagulable state which predisposes to venous, arterial and small vessel thrombosis. We describe a patient with COVID-19 who developed an acute superior mesenteric vein thrombosis with acute intestinal obstruction despite adequate anticoagulation. There was no conflict of interest declared for all authors and no funding was required. Written consent for publication was obtained from the patient. ∗ These 2 senior authors contributed equally.
