Abstract |
We report a case of right upper limb ischaemia diagnosed at birth in a neonate whose mother had presented with paucisymptomatic COVID-19 four weeks previously.

Maternal morbidity and mortality resulting from COVID-19 during pregnancy is well recognised and documented, however, foetal and neonatal complications are increasingly being reported. Our case sheds further light on the diverse nature of such complications, and in particular this type of possible association related to their delayed onset.
