AbstractThe novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 and associated with a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations ranging from asymptomatic carrier states to fulminant respiratory distress and multiple organ dysfunction. The intravascular arterial and venous thrombotic phenomena are one of the most prevalent and devastating consequences and tend to occur in patients with a severe disease state. Here we present a 45-year-old male with a medical history of essential hypertension (HTN) who presented with severe left flank pain accompanied by dry cough and fever for five days. He was found to have acute kidney injury (AKI) with concomitant renal infarction in computed tomography angiography (CTA) in the setting of a COVID-19 infection. He was eventually managed with novel oral anticoagulation (NOAC) and was discharged after a short hospital stay. Follow-up thereafter showed stable baseline renal function with no relevant symptoms.
