SARS Cov-2 infection is a pandemic that continues to ravage the world. The list of its complications continues to grow every day.
We report the case of a young patient admitted to intensive care for limbic encephalitis associated with severely COVID-19 infection.
With the COVID-19 outbreak being a global pandemic, various neurological manifestations have been reported. On the other hand, diverse cases of limbic encephalitis related to COVID-19 have been recently described, they are related either to hyper inflammation syndrome with massive release of inflammatory cytokines or to secondary autoimmune response.
Seriously ill COVID-19 patients are at a higher risk of limbic encephalitis. It is therefore important to monitor Neurological Events in COVID-19 patients. This makes it possible to start the appropriate treatments quickly and avoid complications.
严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2(SARS-CoV-2)感染是一场仍在肆虐全球的大流行病。其并发症的清单每天都在增加。
我们报告了一例年轻患者的病例,该患者因与严重新型冠状病毒肺炎(COVID-19)感染相关的边缘性脑炎而入住重症监护病房。
随着COVID-19疫情成为全球大流行,已报告了各种神经学表现。另一方面,最近描述了多种与COVID-19相关的边缘性脑炎病例,它们要么与炎症细胞因子大量释放的高炎症综合征有关,要么与继发性自身免疫反应有关。
重症COVID-19患者发生边缘性脑炎的风险更高。因此,监测COVID-19患者的神经学事件很重要。这使得能够迅速开始适当的治疗并避免并发症。
