Deskripsi
Abstract We present a unique case of a 68‐year‐old male who was diagnosed with COVID‐19. His hospital course was complicated by widespread thrombosis, renal failure, and thrombocytopenia. Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura was initially suspected, yet plasma exchange and steroids did not improve his disease. Ultimately, he was diagnosed with COVID‐19‐induced thrombotic microangiopathy.
