Pulmonary Thromboembolism - As a Post Covid Sequele in a Mild Category Case (Case Report)

Dr Pasumarthi Chinmai Sai Aparna, Dr Frank Pitchaimuthu, Dr Sonali Trivedi

Abstract: Global pandemic COVID-19, though primarily presents as a lower respiratory tract infection, increasing data suggest multiorgan involvment. Several reports have been published on the cardiovascular implications of this emerging disease, among which venous thromboembolism appears to be a frequent complication, particularly in patients hospitalised for severe ards. Hereby we report a case who developed pulmonary thromboembolism after first hospitalisation for pneumonia of mild severity despite regular administration of thromboprophylaxis.
