description | Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV- 2) and has resulted
in increased mortality worldwide. Several studies have identified the involvement of the gastrointestinal tract, respiratory tract, and
other tissues. Although it has been reported that the angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 receptor affected by SARS-CoV is expressed
more in the pancreas than in the lungs, the issue regarding the occurrence of pancreatitis is controversial. SARS Cov-2 rarely causes
acute necrotizing pancreatitis without significantly affecting the respiratory and other systems. This paper presents a patient who
underwent laparotomy due to acute necrotizing pancreatitis and hemodynamic instability caused by COVID-19 without any known
risk factors. |
