Cienfuegos et al. have treated several COVID-19 patients with thromboembolic complications, including bowel ischemia. The authors correctly highlight the importance of this complication in COVID-19 patients, which has also been documented in autopsy studies. PMID: 32579014 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
