Abstract

Although the main complication of coronavirus infection (COVID19) is severe lung infection and acute respiratory failure, it also affects other organs in the body, and non-respiratory infections can have significant side effects. One of these problems is a disorder of the blood coagulation system and thrombosis. Although the body's coagulation system and the formation of blood clots are essential for wound healing, ectopic thrombosis in the body's arteries and veins can lead to ischemia and dysfunction of the heart, lungs, and brain. Thrombosis and blood clots have recently emerged as one of the most important and serious complications of coronavirus infection. Knowledge of the signs and symptoms of thrombosis and their treatment plays an important role in the treatment of coronary artery infection and its complications.
