Abstract


Neurological Involvement in Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)

Authors: Buechner Susanne, Tesolin Lucia.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a global pandemic, caused by a virus known as SARS-CoV-2. Many different neurological symptoms and complications have been reported in COVID-19 patients, such as headache, anosmia and Guillain-Barré syndrome, as well as encephalitis, stroke and seizures. We have summarized all these neurological manifestations in a short overview. Our understanding of neurological involvement in COVID-19 is still limited, therefore careful assessment should be performed, and neurologists need to be involved.
