Abstract
- We present two cases of acute arterial thrombosis in patients who were confirmed to be SARS-CoV-2 positive. Neither of the patients had a background of underlying vascular morbidity. At the time of presentation, both patients exhibited only mild respiratory symptoms of COVID-19. After initial assessment and work-up, both patients underwent surgery for their respective vascular pathologies. They both did well post-operatively and were discharged home. This is an unusual presentation of acute arterial thrombosis in two patients with only mild symptoms of COVID-19 infection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
