Ischemic gangrene of the upper limb associated with COVID-19 infection: about 2 cases

Clinical manifestations of COVID-19 have changed a lot, ranging from respiratory and Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) symptoms to extra pulmonary thrombotic, neurological, cardiac and renal complications. We here report the case of two patients with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia whose course was marked by prolonged upper limb ischemia. The association between venous, but also arterial, thrombotic complications and viral infection is now well established, and appears to be related to hypercoagulability.
