The current global pandemic of COVID-19 disease is caused by a novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. This typically causes severe respiratory illness, however, as cases have multiplied across the globe, protean manifestations involving multiple organ systems have been described. We report a case of a 35-year-old woman with meningoencephalitis associated with COVID-19 disease who presented with altered mental status and rhythmic limb movements. Although rare, meningoencephalitis should be considered as a possible manifestation of COVID-19 disease.
当前全球新冠疫情由新型冠状病毒SARS-CoV-2引起。这通常会导致严重的呼吸道疾病，然而，随着全球病例数的增加，已经有涉及多个器官系统的多种表现被描述。我们报告一例35岁女性，患有与新冠疾病相关的脑膜脑炎，表现为精神状态改变和肢体节律性运动。虽然罕见，但脑膜脑炎应被视为新冠疾病的一种可能表现。
