In the available literature, only two cases of superior mesenteric vein thrombosis have been described. CASE REPORT: We present a peculiar case of high grade small bowel obstruction secondary to congenital adhesion band with associated focal bowel ischemia contributed by superior mesenteric vein thrombosis and positive lupus anticoagulant in a patient with COVID-19. CONCLUSION: It is important to consider the rare differential of mesenteric vein thrombosis and its related sequelae of mesenteric ischemia in a patient with COVID-19 who presents with abdominal pain.
