COVID-19 infection has a high morbidity and mortality rate. Although there is mainly pulmonary involvement, SARS-CoV-2 infection is considered to be a true endothelial disease, given these patients' increased risk of developing both arterial and venous thrombotic phenomena. We present three cases of patients with active SARS-CoV-2 infection and simultaneous thromboses in different vascular territories: cerebrovascular disease and pulmonary embolism, cerebrovascular disease and peripheral arterial embolism, and cerebrovascular disease plus deep vein thrombosis. We emphasize the scant evidence on the topic in the current literature and the importance of being alert to the onset of these events during the clinical course of patients with acute infection with the new coronavirus.
