The "Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)", caused by severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), progressed rapidly since its first outbreak, and quickly developed into a pandemic. Although COVID-19 mostly presents with respiratory symptoms, researchers have started reporting neurologic manifestations such as cerebrovascular diseases in patients, with COVID-19 as the pandemic has progressed. Herein, we report a case of 38-year-old female patient identified with a left common carotid artery dissection, with COVID-19. Clinicians must keep in mind that COVID-19 can cause vascular complications such as carotid artery dissections in the ensuing period, even after the acute phase, although there is currently a lack of sufficient evidence to identify any causal association between COVID-19 and arterial dissections.
由严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒 2 型(SARS-CoV-2)引起的“2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)”自首次爆发以来迅速蔓延,迅速发展成为大流行。尽管 COVID-19 主要表现为呼吸道症状,但随着大流行的发展,研究人员开始在患者中报告诸如脑血管疾病等神经系统表现。在此,我们报告了一例 38 岁女性 COVID-19 患者,被诊断为左侧颈总动脉夹层。临床医生必须牢记,即使在急性期之后,COVID-19 也可能在随后的时期引起血管并发症,例如颈动脉夹层,尽管目前尚无足够的证据确定 COVID-19 与动脉夹层之间存在任何因果关系。
