Mehmood 1 Ayesha Siddiqa 1 Department of Medicine, Bronx Care Health System, Affiliated with Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, Bronx, NY, USA Coronavirus disease -19 (COVID-19) is a novel contagious infection initially thought to be a respiratory pathogen, but there is increasing evidence of multisystem involvement. Here, we report a 43-year-old male who presented with acute abdominal pain associated with fever and chills and was diagnosed with acute appendicitis. He was tested positive for COVID-19, and because of elevated inflammatory markers, the patient was successfully managed non-operatively with remdesiver and intravenous (IV) antibiotics. Our patient had predominantly abdominal findings, and we believe that that there is a possibility that appendicitis may be associated with COVID-19. http://pubs.sciepub.com/ajmcr/8/12/17/ajmcr-8-12-17.pdf corona virus disease 2019 acute appendicitis remdesivir
