Splenic Surprise: Investigating a Case of Splenic Infarct as an Isolated COVID-19 Manifestation.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection has been associated with a multitude of complications, one established complication being thromboembolism, a result of the proinflammatory state induced by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). This prothrombotic state is a cumulation of many inflammatory pathways at work. Here, we present an interesting case of a 43-year-old female who did not present with the typical COVID-19 clinical picture. Instead, she presented with periumbilical pain, nausea, and vomiting. Upon further investigation, she was found to have a splenic infarct on a computed tomography (CT) scan. An extensive workup was performed to explore possible etiologies; however, it was concluded that her splenic infarct was secondary to her COVID-19 infection. With this case, we aim to add to the literature regarding the manifestations of the prothrombotic state of SARS-CoV-2.
