Abstract

Because of an increased hypercoagulable state, a significant proportion of COVID-19 patients develop various and extensive venous thromboembolic complications. We report the case of a young patient with a history of pneumopathy related to COVID-19 disease, in whom the diagnosis of thrombosis of a pampiniform plexus vein was made on color doppler ultrasound data. We adopted a conservative treatment with good clinical and radiological evolution. To our knowledge, this is the second association of venous thrombosis of the pampiniform plexus with COVID-19 disease.<br />Competing Interests: The authors declare that there are no conflicts of interest regarding the publication of this article.<br /> (© 2021 Published by Elsevier Inc.)
