METHODS: Patients with confirmed COVID-19 infection between March 1, 2020 and May 15, 2020 with an acute arterial thromboembolic event were reviewed. CONCLUSIONS: While the mechanism of thromboembolic events in patients with COVID-19 remains unclear, the occurrence of such complication is associated with acute arterial ischemia which results in a high limb loss and mortality. From the world's largest experience with COVID-19, we report the clinical presentation, While the mechanism of thromboembolic events in patients with COVID-19 remains unclear, the 102 occurrence of such complication is associated with acute arterial ischemia which results in a 103 high limb loss and mortality. Twenty-two (45%) patients 164 presented with signs of acute arterial ischemia and were subsequently diagnosed with COVIDThe rate of limb loss was 18% and overall, in-hospital mortality was 46%.	./cache/cord-338626-x0d3qlj2.txt	./txt/cord-338626-x0d3qlj2.txt
