Several reports had observed a high risk of pulmonary embolism (PE) in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19), most of them in the intensive care unit. Reported findings indicate that a direct viral‐mediated hyperinflammatory response leads to local thromboinflammation. According to those findings, the incidence of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in patients with COVID‐19 and PE should be low. The objective of this study was to evaluate the incidence of DVT in patients with COVID‐19 who developed PE.
