在当前的COVID-19大流行期间,出现了无数的表现和并发症,并正在报道。我们发现COVID-19患者发生急性心脏损伤的风险增加。血栓栓塞并发症(肺栓塞和急性中风)和继发性感染。我描述了一例新的COVID-19病例,患者为一名先前健康的33岁女性,表现为精神状态改变和眼球突出。除了COVID-19,她最终被诊断出患有毛霉菌病和眶隔室综合征。早期识别这些高发病率疾病是实现最佳治疗和改善结局的关键。(C)2020爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
During the current pandemic of COVID-19, a myriad of manifestations and complications has emerged and are being reported on. We are discovering patients with COVID-19 are at increased risk of acute cardiac injury. anythmias, thromboembolic complications (pulmonary embolism and acute stroke), and secondary infection to name a few. I describe a novel case of COVID-19 in a previously healthy 33-year-old female who presented for altered mental status and proptosis. She was ultimately diagnosed with mucormycosis and orbital compartment syndrome, in addition to COVID-19. Early identification of these high morbidity conditions is key to allow for optimal treatment and improved outcomes. (C) 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
