Abstract
A 46-year-old male with a history of SARS-CoV-2 infection one month ago presented to the hospital due to acute onset left flank pain. He was found to have an acute left renal embolic infarction from a large 15mm ascending aortic thrombus, which may have formed due to a transient hypercoagulable state from his recent SARS-CoV-2 infection along with tobacco use. He was medically managed with anticoagulation for six months. Subsequent imaging after three months of therapeutic anticoagulation showed complete resolution of the ascending aortic thrombus.
