Abdominal Pain Caused by Viral Infection Is Not Always Trivial We report on a 28-year-old previously healthy patient with initially elevated temperature and cough and developing most severe epigastric pain and peritonism in the right upper abdomen. A "bedside" sonography revealed a portal vein thrombosis, the CT additionally partial thromboses of the vena lienalis, vena mesenterica superior. During the examination, a SARS-CoV-2 infection (IgM, IgG) was confirmed. Currently (pandemic), extrapulmonary thromboembolism must also be considered. For this purpose, sonography is the appropriate "search method" - it can be used from "head to toe", immediately and at the "bedside".
