Thrombocytopenia with acute ischemic stroke and bleeding in a patient newly vaccinated with an adenoviral vector-based COVID-19 vaccine

Rolf Ankerlund Blauenfeldt et al.

Summary: This study reported the first Danish case of presumed inflammatory and thrombotic response following vaccination with the AZD1222 COVID-19 vaccine. The patient, a 60-year-old woman, experienced abdominal pain 7 days after vaccination, along with adrenal hemorrhages, ischemic stroke, and ultimately death. Blood tests revealed significant drops in platelet counts and increased D-dimer levels, suggesting a novel immune-mediated response to the vaccine.

Thrombosis and Thrombocytopenia after ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 Vaccination

Nina H. Schultz et al.

Summary: This study reports five cases of venous thrombosis and thrombocytopenia occurring 7 to 10 days after receiving the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine, suggesting a rare vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia. The condition, which can lead to catastrophic outcomes such as cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, may be treated with intravenous immune globulin.
