Case Report: Acute Splenic Artery Thrombosis in a COVID 19, Postpartum Patient
The incidence of thromboembolic disease is reported to be high in SARS-CoV2 disease. Pregnancy, an already physiologically hypercoagulable state, associated to COVID 19, generates even more concern regarding the potentially increased risk of thrombotic events. The exact incidence of such complicatio...

The incidence of thromboembolic disease is reported to be high in SARS-CoV2 disease.
