Parkinsonism developed owing to viruses is one of the important causes of secondary parkinsonism. After the Spanish flu pandemic, the increase in the number of parkinsonian cases in the long term has drawn attention on the relationship between viruses and parkinsonism. For this reason, the relationship between influenza and parkinsonism has been studied most. Nowadays in which we are experiencing the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists, based on the experiences gained from the Spanish flu pandemic, have drawn attention to the fact that the third wave of the pandemic might be parkinsonism. However, as we have reviewed in the literature, acute parkinsonism due to COVID-19 was not reported during this pandemic. Here, we present a case in which signs of acute parkinsonism developed on the 3rd day of the illness and neurological symptoms regressed with convalescent plasma treatment.
由于病毒引起的帕金森病是继发性帕金森病的重要原因之一。在西班牙流感大流行之后，长期以来帕金森病例数的增加引起了人们对病毒与帕金森病之间关系的关注。出于这个原因，流感与帕金森病之间的关系已被研究最多。在我们经历 COVID-19 大流行的今天，科学家们根据西班牙流感大流行的经验，注意到第三波大流行可能是帕金森病。然而，正如我们在文献中回顾的那样，在此次大流行期间并未报告 COVID-19 引起的急性帕金森病。在这里，我们介绍了一例患者，该患者在发病第 3 天出现急性帕金森病的迹象，并且随着恢复期血浆治疗，神经系统症状有所改善。
