ABSTRACT:
The novel coronavirus causes varied symptomatology and several complications, among them, stand out those of the gastrointestinal tract. In order to discuss gastrointestinal complications in SARS-COV-2 infected patients and their outcomes, we’ve developed an integrative literature review, using Pubmed and BVS databases. The following descriptors were used: covid-19, Sars-cov-2, gastrointestinal Tract, and Complications. The selected studies presented patients with covid-19 and gastrointestinal complications. The majority of the 13 articles included were case reports, in Europe, mostly men at the age of 60 or more. As for complications, ischemia, gastrointestinal bleeding, and pneumatosis, arterial narrowing and thrombosis stands out. In diagnoses, commonly exam was the reverse polymerase-transcriptase chain reaction; treatment varied between conservative and surgical resection. It’s evident the importance of good practice, early diagnosis and treatments, avoiding at its most the worsening of the condition. However, whereas is such a recent subject matter, further studies need to be made.
