摘要

A 42-year-old man presented to the emergency department with fever, asthenia, myalgias, dry cough, and hyposmia. After detection of viral nucleic acid from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in a nasopharyngeal swab, the diagnosis of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was made. As there were no severe criteria for admittance, the patient was discharged on symptomatic medication.One week later, he was brought to the hospital due to altered mental status, slowness of movements, and apathy. Neurological examination revealed dysexecutive syndrome, perseveration, and mild dysphonia/dysphagia; there were no pyramidal/extra-pyramidal signs. Blood work-up was unremarkable, and brain computed tomography (CT) showed multiple hypodense lesions involving the white matter, basal ganglia, and thalami. Lumbar puncture revealed mild elevated proteins (0.78 mg/dL) without pleocytosis; cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) viral workup was negative, including S ARS-CoV-2. Extensive serological immune and infective panels were negative. Suspecting an inflammatory response related to SARS-CoV-2 infection, intravenous immunoglobulin (30g/day) was initiated.
