Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), a global public health crisis caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-COV-2), can involve almost all organ system. Fever and respiratory symptom are two of the commonest complaint but a small amount of patient can have gastrointestinal symptom only. COVID-19 patient with sole gastrointestinal symptom can be difficult to diagnose in clinical practice especially if the patient doesn’t have a fever. Hereby, we present three cases of confirmed COVID-19 patients who present with sole gastrointestinal symptom and discuss several important clues towards the diagnosis. COVID-19 can present with sole Gastrointestinal symptom. This should raise our awareness especially in a country where active COVID-19 cases are still high.

Key words: COVID-19, Gastrointestinal symptom, Indonesia, SARS-COV-2
