Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic continues to grow all over the world. Neurological manifestations related to COVID-19, including acute ischemic Stroke (AIS), have been reported in recent studies. In most of these, the patients are older, have multiple co-morbidities as risk factors for AIS and have developed a severe respiratory illness. Herein, we report a 36-year-old man with no significant past medical history who recently recovered from a mild COVID-19 infection and presented with unusual pattern of arterial macrothrombosis causing AIS. When the AIS happened, he had no COVID-19 related symptoms, had two negative screening tests for the infection and his chest CT was unremarkable.
新型冠状病毒肺炎（COVID-19）大流行在全球范围内持续蔓延。最近的研究报告了与COVID-19相关的神经学表现，包括急性缺血性卒中（AIS）。在大多数此类病例中，患者年龄较大，有多种合并症作为AIS的危险因素，并且已发展为严重的呼吸道疾病。在此，我们报告一名36岁男性，既往无重大病史，近期从轻度COVID-19感染中康复，出现了导致AIS的异常动脉大血栓形成模式。AIS发生时，他没有COVID-19相关症状，两次感染筛查试验均为阴性，胸部CT检查无异常。
