The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has ravaged the world with its novel symptoms, infection rates, and death toll. The research community continues to learn more about the sequalae of the infection as it does not follow the pattern of a typical coronavirus. This is a case of persisting auditory and visual hallucinations in a 46-year-old woman after a COVID-19 induced delirium. The hallucinations remained, despite recovery from the virus, for almost three months with resolution of all other signs and symptoms. The hallucinations eventually disappeared and their persistence was believed to be continued symptomatology after treatment.
2019年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)大流行以其新奇的症状、感染率和死亡人数肆虐全球。由于COVID-19的感染模式不同于典型冠状病毒,研究界仍在不断深入了解其感染后遗症。本文报告了1例46岁女性患者,在COVID-19引发谵妄后出现持续性听觉和视觉幻觉。尽管病毒已清除,但幻觉持续存在近3个月,而所有其他体征和症状均已消退。幻觉最终消失,其持续存在被认为是治疗后的持续症状表现。
