Thromboembolic complications of COVID-19	2020-11-07		.txt	text/plain	2591	144	39	Although COVID-19 was initially regarded as a pulmonary illness causing significant morbidity and mortality in the elderly and in those with underlying medical conditions, experience in New York-an early epicenter of COVID-19 in the USA-found that a significant percentage of younger patients less than 50 presented with moderate to severe symptoms requiring hospitalizations [1] . This case series highlights the thromboembolic complications affecting younger patients less than age 65, including pulmonary embolism, stroke, right ventricular thrombosis, renal vein thrombosis, and aortic thrombosis with leg ischemia. On hospital day 5, because of persistent hypoxemia despite receiving supplemental oxygen via non-rebreather, chest CTA was performed which revealed extensive ground-glass and patchy airspace opacities typical of COVID-19 pneumonia, bilateral lower lobe segmental pulmonary emboli, and right ventricular thrombus (Fig. 3) . In moderate to severe cases of COVID-19, thrombotic complications have emerged in infected patients, as was seen with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 1 (SARS-CoV-1) in 2003 [9] .	./cache/cord-327438-c5gzlfwi.txt	./txt/cord-327438-c5gzlfwi.txt
