Öz

A 20-years-old female patient presented to the emergency service due to complaints of sudden onset of severe shortness of breath; by a 3-day history of fever and a 1-day history of dry cough. After the patient evaluation, the presence of SARS-COV-2 infection together with the acute pulmonary embolism was detected. After the low molecular weight heparin was applied to the patient, the considerable increase was detected in the patient's oxygen saturation level. The acute pulmonary embolism can be seen after viral pneumonia.1 SARS-COV-2 pneumonia in comparison to the normal healtly population has much more embolism complication. In the evaluation stage, the request of contrast-enhanced tomography is crucial for the patients who have a high level of D-dimer and severe shortness of breath. The low molecular weight heparin that we use for treatment is given prophylactically in high-risk patients.3 In the reduction of anti-inflammatory response besides the protective effect of heparin; It is also known that IL-6 has binding properties at recent publications.4 In our case, We evaluated micro-thrombosis and large-vessel thrombosis may coexist in SARS-Cov-2 pneumonia and the effect of heparin.
