Figure 22.

Renal infarct in a critically ill 52-year-old man who underwent intubation for COVID-19 and who presented with oliguria and was diagnosed with elevated creatinine levels. Sagittal color Doppler US image shows a focal area of hypoperfusion (solid arrows) in the upper pole of the left kidney, compatible with an infarct. Normal perfusion (dashed arrows) is seen in the lower pole of the kidney. Bilateral patchy ground-glass opacities, a typical finding of COVID-19 pneumonia, were depicted at chest radiography (not shown).
