Core Tip Gastrointestinal manifestations of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection have been increasingly reported and corresponding abdominal imaging findings have been recognized. The present review includes case reports, case series, and retrospective studies discussing small bowel radiological manifestations of SARS-CoV-2 infection in abdominal imaging studies. Out of 62 patients, the most commonly reported finding is mesenteric ischemia, with a prevalence of 50%. Other less frequent features are small bowel wall thickening (16%), pneumatosis intestinalis (15%), intussusception (13%), pneumoperitoneum (3%), paralytic ileus (3%). We also report a patient with mesenteric adipose tissue hypertrophy and lymph nodes enlargement.
