Abstract
Initially recognized as a respiratory system disease, COVID-19 has been found to be more of a systemic illness with multiorgan involvement. Recently, there are increasing reports of persistent and prolonged effects after acute COVID-19 infection, mainly on the cardiovascular system. Here, we report the case of a young man with myopericarditis and multiple systemic arteriovenous thrombosis developing several weeks after flu-like symptoms, with antigens indicating a past COVID-19 infection. This case highlights the multisystemic involvement of SARS-CoV-2, raising the possibility of concomitant myopericarditis and multiple systemic thrombosis after a COVID-19 non-severe infection. To our knowledge, there are no previous reports of such a case.
