OBJECTIVES: COVID-19 associated arterial thrombosis has been attributed to multiple inflammation and coagulation mechanisms. The aim of this study was to report the experience of a tertiary center on COVID-19 patients managed for acute peripheral arterial thrombosis.
METHODS: A single-center case series was conducted, including retrospectively collected data from all COVID-19 patients presenting arterial thrombosis, from March 2020 to February 2022. Intensive care unit (ICU) and non-ICU cases were included. The primary outcomes were mortality, successful revascularization, and amputation at 30 days.
RESULTS: Twenty patients presented peripheral arterial thrombosis (90% males, mean age 65 years (16-82 years)). Eighteen were diagnosed with the Delta variant and none was previously vaccinated. All cases presented acute lower limb ischemia; in 20% with bilateral involvement. Nine patients were hospitalized in the ward while 11 in the ICU. From the non-ICU cases, five presented Rutherford IIb and four cases, Rutherford's IIa ischemia. Six cases underwent revascularization (67%). Two of them were finally amputated (33%) and two died during hospitalization (33%). Two revascularizations were considered successful (33%). The ICU group presented mainly with Rutherford's III ischemia (54.5%). The mortality in the ICU cohort was 72.7%. Only one patient underwent successful revascularization and two were amputated in this subgroup. Early mortality was 50% for the total cohort while the type of management was not related to mortality.
CONCLUSIONS: Covid-19 related arterial thrombosis in non-vaccinated population is associated with 50% early mortality; increased up to 72% in the ICU patients. The amputation rate was 20% while only 40% of the revascularizations were considered successful.
