Abstract

Coronavirus illness (Covid-19) is an associate degree infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus. Patients often present with respiratory symptoms (cough, breathing difficulty) and fever. However, patients with Covid-19 have also been presented with gastrointestinal symptoms like abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting, but are very unusual and often correlated with other symptoms. In our emergency department, we have a patient with atypical presentation of severe pain in the abdomen as the primary complaint without having any other gastrointestinal complaints but coronavirus infection.
