Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is responsible for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection. The ongoing pandemic of COVID-19 has sought the attention of clinicians and researchers to investigate and describe its various pathological aspects. Infection with SARS-CoV-2 and the resulting COVID-19 can affect virtually any organ of the human body, including the bone marrow which, in turn, causes pancytopenia. Diagnosing pancytopenia in the setting of COVID-19 infection is challenging and requires ruling out all other potential causes of pancytopenia. Herein, we report a rare case of severe pancytopenia secondary to COVID-19 infection that developed severe transient pancytopenia which improved with conservative management.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
