Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Some patients with COVID-19 show widely neurological manifestations including stroke. We report a child who was hospitalized due to seizures and was later diagnosed with COVID-19. Acute infarction was seen in the right putamen, globus pallidus, and the posterior part of the insula. A small focal dilatation within M1 segment of the left middle cerebral artery (MCA) was also observed. According to the present case report, COVID-19 infection may contribute to the occurrence and development of ischemic stroke.
2019冠状病毒病（COVID-19）由严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2（SARS-CoV-2）引起。一些COVID-19患者表现出广泛的神经学表现，包括中风。我们报告一名因癫痫发作住院，后来被诊断为COVID-19的儿童。在右侧壳核、苍白球和岛叶后部可见急性梗死。还观察到左侧大脑中动脉（MCA）M1段内有一个小的局灶性扩张。根据本病例报告，COVID-19感染可能促成缺血性中风的发生和发展。
