COVID-19 infection increases risk of thrombosis both arterial and venous systems. Many organs of arterial thrombosis were reported. We reported a case of superior mesenteric artery thrombosis in a COVID-19 pneumonia patient who presented with abdominal pain and leukocytosis. The patient required exploratory laparotomy, bowel resection and superior mesenteric artery thromboembolectomy. In postoperative period, the patient continued anticoagulation for long term treatment.
