Abstract
The article presents a clinical case of the fatal Mallory- Weiss syndrome, which suddenly developed in an 86-year-old patient with a new coronavirus infection COVID-19, complicated by bilateral polysegmental pneumonia. The patient had no history of gastroesophageal refl ux disease, gastric ulcer or duodenal ulcer. The level of D-dimer on admission was elevated, but the patient was prescribed a reduced dose of anticoagulants (heparin). Despite the initial positive dynamics of the condition, the patient had a wave-like course of COVID-19, followed by the development of Mallory- Weiss syndrome, extremely severe post-hemorrhagic anemia and multiple organ failure, which became the cause of death.
