The current pandemic caused by the new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has been the focus of global health concern since its appearance. Its high transmissibility associated with the absence of an effective treatment implies a hard impact in the research area. Reports of atypical presentation forms, associated risk factors, and drugs tested to decrease morbidity and mortality saturate the media. The cardiology community is actively present since cardiovascular manifestations are frequent and varied, as well as an increased risk has been observed in those patients with previous cardiovascular disease. The objective of this review is to contribute the available evidence on this particular topic, making the caveat, of the dynamic nature of the information.

Palabras clave : SARS-CoV-2; COVID-19; Cardiovascular disease.
