SARS-CoV-2 Induces Pericyte Procoagulant Response Associated with Portal Vein Microthrombosis and Intrapulmonary Vascular Dilations in Fatal COVID-19

2022-02-18

Abstract excerpt

Background: Alterations in hepatic microvasculature occur in lethal cases of COVID-19, but underlying mechanisms and clinical significance are unclear. Intrapulmonary vascular dilations (IPVD) arising during liver disease may contribute to hypoxemia. We hypothesize a link between portal vein microthrombosis and persistent hypoxia in patients with severe COVID-19.<br><br>Methods: Ninety-three patients who had die...
