Abstract
Atheroembolic renal disease (AERD) is a life-threatening illness. Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has a high mortality rate in older patients with comorbidities. We report the case of severe-type COVID-19 in an 82-year-old female with AERD. She was treated with hydroxychloroquine-based therapy and overcame COVID-19. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a patient with AERD and COVID-19 pneumonia who overcame the infection and remains alive and well nine months following infection.
