Neurologic symptoms present as significant complications of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection. This report describes a novel manifestation of tremors triggered by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection.
We describe a case of a 46-year-old man with COVID-19 infection complicated by a bilateral intention tremor and wide-based gait. Although neurological manifestations have been reported related to COVID-19, tremulousness has not yet been described.
Considering the evolving diversity of neurologic manifestations in this infection, emergency physicians should be vigilant of possible COVID-19 infection in patients presenting with unexplained neurologic symptoms.
神经系统症状是2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)感染的重要并发症。本报告描述了一种由严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2感染引发震颤的新表现。
我们描述了一例46岁男性COVID-19感染病例,该病例并发双侧意向性震颤和宽基底步态。尽管已有与COVID-19相关的神经系统表现报道,但震颤症状尚未见描述。
鉴于该感染中神经系统表现的多样性不断变化,急诊医生应对出现不明原因神经系统症状的患者警惕可能的COVID-19感染。
