Abstract

After the SARS COVID 19 virus enters the body, it causes various symptoms through viremia (1). COVID-19 has been implicated in occurrences of cardiovascular and thromboembolic complications due to systemic inflammation and coagulopathy (2-4). On the other hand, some published papers have argued that the signs and symptoms of severe COVID-19 infection are more similar to the pathophysiology and phenotype of complement-mediated thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA), rather than to sepsis-induced coagulopathy or diffuse intravascular coagulation (DIC) (5). It has been suggested that COVID-19 predisposes patients to thrombotic pathological conditions in both the venous and the arterial circulation due to inflammation, platelet activation, endothelial dysfunction and stasis (4).
