Abstract:
It was in December 2019 that the coronavirus causing COVID-19 was first detected in Wuhan, China. Although the primary clinical presentation is respiratory disease, an increasing number of reports worldwide have noted various neurological manifestations, such as acute encephalitis. We present a case of a 49-year-old female admitted with afebrile impaired consciousness, diagnosed with acute encephalitis and a severe infection of COVID-19. Clinical and radiological improvement was observed following treatment with corticosteroids.
