Abdominal Computed Tomography Findings in Patients with COVID-19

Öz

Purpose: COVID-19 is a viral pneumonia epidemic that has become a global health crisis. Apart from pneumonia symptoms, it may present with many different clinical findings. In this study, our aim was to evaluate the intraabdominal organs and the major abdominal vascular structures in abdominal Computed Tomography (CT) obtained from COVID-19 patients. Methods: This retrospective study was conducted between March 2020 and March 2021, between patients admitted to our hospital with visceral symptoms within 3 months of SARS‑CoV‑2 infection and the control group. Abdominal CT findings, laboratory values and demographic characteristics of these patients were compared with the control group. Results: In cases with COVID-19, the most common findings were corads-5 (n = 53, 53%) and the second most common was corads-1 (n = 21, 21,0%) findings on CT of the thorax. On abdominal CT, dilated ans was observed in 4 (4,0%) patients, and perforation was observed in 2 (2,0%) patients. Cholelithiasis in 8 (8,0%) patients, intrahepatic bile duct dilatation in 2 (2,0%) patients, hepatomegaly in 36 (36,0%) patients, and splenomegaly in 12 (12,0%) patients were determined as gallbladder pathology. In the comparative evaluation of the vascular diameter measurements obtained from abdominal CT, the diameter of the portal vein and left renal artery were found to be significantly lower in the patient group (p = 0.018, p = 0.015, respectively). Conclusions: In SARS‑CoV‑2 infection, visceral symptoms may occur during the onset of disease symptoms, while symptomatic, or after clinical improvement. Evaluation of the main vascular structures together with the intra-abdominal organs for ischemia and thrombus in abdominal CT, and the radiologists meticulously measuring the diameters of the abdominal main vascular structures can give the clinician important information about possible vasoconstriction.
