Summary: A 49-year-old man was diagnosed with pre-fibrotic myelofibrosis after acute left lower-limb ischemia requiring amputation and portal vein thrombosis. After surgery he developed heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) with venous thromboembolism, successfully treated with argatroban followed by dabigatran. Our systematic review of the literature supports the use of dabigatran for suspected HIT.

Symptoms And Signs

Though there have been multiple cases of arterial thrombosis and gangrene of limbs reported following COVID-19 infections, there has not been any case reported following COVID-19 vaccinations. Here we reported a case of acute lower limb ischemia following COVID-19 vaccination in a 32 year male with no co-morbidities. The clinical symptoms and signs related to lower limb ischemia started 2 weeks after COVID-19 vaccination. Despite anticoagulation, thrombo embolectomy and intraluminal catheter guided thrombolysis, patient’s left forefoot became gangrenous and had to be amputated.
