Stroke patterns and outcomes during the second wave of COVID-19 pandemic: a cross-sectional study
CONCLUSION: The factors that cause the delayed transfer to the hospital and onset of treatment should be addressed. Patient counseling about the likely prognosis can be done after evaluating the probable outcome based on the NIHSS score and median duration of hospital stay. Nevertheless, mechanisms should be developed to reduce the prehospital delay at the ground level as well as at the policy level.PMID:37363610 | PMC:PMC10289718 | DOI:10.1097/MS9.0000000000000722

The SARS-CoV-2 responsible for phlegmasia cerulea dolens: a case report
CONCLUSION: Although the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 remains a thrombogenic pathology, systematic anticoagulation is the subject of hypothesis. Hence the importance of regular monitoring of markers of vascular thrombosis.PMID:37008170 | PMC:PMC10060091 | DOI:10.1097/MS9.0000000000000152

An acute lower limb ischemia revealing a covid-19 infection: A case report
CONCLUSION: The coagulopathy responsible for venous and arterial thrombosis is a well-established complication of COVID-19. Arterial thromboembolic complications can be either stroke, acute coronary syndrome or peripheral acute ischemia. Therefore, patients with covid19 should be monitored more closely for thromboembolic complications.PMID:35999833 | PMC:PMC9389520 | DOI:10.1016/j.amsu.2022.104445

Aortic arch thrombosis complicated by an embolic stroke in a patient with COVID-19: A case report
CONCLUSION: Aortic thrombosis is a devastating condition that can be easily missed without clinical suspicion. Our patient developed acute ischemic stroke, most likely embolic originating from the aortic thrombus. The clinician should consider this condition in any COVID-19 patient presenting with thromboembolic events, such as stroke or acute limb ischemia. Further study is required to explain the pathophysiology of arterial/venous thrombosis in mild-moderate COVID-19 cases.PMID:34457268 | PMC:PMC8381619 | DOI:10.1016/j.amsu.2021.102760
