Introduction: Coagulopathy is a relatively common problem in patients with severe Covid-19. In this study, a hospitalized patient with Covid-19 who developed an abdominal hematoma is introduced.
Case Report: The patient was a 46-year-old woman who was hospitalized due to Covid-19. On the fifth day of admission, she developed abdominal pain without gastrointestinal symptoms. Abdominal and pelvic ultrasonography showed a mass with an approximate volume of 480 cc on the right and bottom of the midline of the abdomen. The patient underwent laparotomy with suspected ovarian torsion, which was diagnosed abdominal hematoma during surgery. She was discharged with a good condition after successfully removing hematoma and post operation care.
Discussion & Conclusion: Considering the frequency of coagulation disorders in Covid-19 patients and the simultaneous administration of anticoagulants in hospitalized patients, bleeding and hematoma should be considered in the treatment process.
