?:abstract
  • Large vessel arterial thrombosis has been reported to complicate a subset of cases of COVID-19. Thrombosis of the extracranial carotid arterial system may lead to devastating stroke in some patients with COVID-19. We present a patient previously hospitalized with COVID-19 for oxygen supplementation who presented after discharge with delayed stroke from a right common artery (CCA) and internal carotid artery (ICA) thrombosis. The thrombotic occlusion resolved with anti-thrombotic medications and no invasive intervention. The report highlights the complicated and heterogenous nature of COVID-19 and provides one approach to managing the devastating complication of stroke from carotid arterial thrombosis.
