BACKGROUND: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) involves all organs of the body, of which the interaction with cardiovascular diseases is the most important. SUMMARY: Numerous studies have reported that COVID-19 patients complicated with cardiovascular comorbidities (hypertension, coronary heart disease, chronic heart failure (HF), cerebrovascular disease) are more likely to develop into critical illness and have higher mortality. Conversely, COVID-19 may also cause myocardial injury in patients through various pathological mechanisms such as direct virus attack on cardiomyocytes, overactivation of immune response, microthrombus formation, which may lead to fatal acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, acute worsening of chronic HF, etc. In addition, the symptoms of the so-called long-COVID may remain in some patients who survived the acute viral infection. Positional tachycardia has been widely reported, and cardiovascular autonomic disorders are thought to play a pathogenic role. KEY MESSAGE: The review summarizes the interaction between COVID-19 and cardiovascular disease in terms of pathological mechanism, clinical features, and sequelae. Therapeutic and rehabilitation programs after COVID-19 infection are compiled and need to be further standardized in the future.
