Abstract
Throughout the pandemic, a new coronavirus infection has led to the death of more than 6 million people worldwide. One of the most severe complications of this extremely dangerous infection is damage to the coronary vascular system caused by damage to the endothelium of the vessels, which leads to the development of thrombotic complications. They can occur in the basins of the brain, heart, in the splanchnic circulatory system, as well as in the vessels of the extremities, especially in conditions of concomitant atherosclerotic lesion. We present the case of treatment of an elderly patient with obliterating atherosclerosis and critical lower limb ischemia after a COVID-19 infection complicated by thrombosis of the femoral-popliteal shunt.
