Case Reports COVID-19 WITH NEUROLOGICAL MANIFESTATIONS

Abstract

COVID-19 has been presenting with a wide spectrum of manifestations including neurological ones. We encountered three patients who presented with neurological symptoms at our set up (COVID WING Farooq Hospital, West Wood branch, Lahore). One patient presented with altered behavior and was found to have infarcts in basal ganglia with no risk factors already present. The second patient presented initially with respiratory symptoms and developed post-COVID-19 cranial nerve palsies and right hemiparesis. The third patient developed generalized tonic-clonic seizures. All these patients tested positive for COVID-19 on PCR. The first two patients refused treatment but the third one recovered fully and was discharged.
