BACKGROUND
SARS-CoV-2 mostly affects the respiratory system. Some studies have reported neurological disorders associated with SARS-CoV-2. Despite an increase in reported instances, encephalitis caused by COVID-19 infection is still poorly understood.
CASE
We reported a rare presentation of SARS-CoV-2 in a 15-year-old patient. He had a fulminant course with encephalitis. He had mild symptoms of a COVID-19 infection five months ago and recovered without any sequel. Despite appropriate treatment, the patient had a devastating course.
CONCLUSIONS
This was a severe presentation of SARS-CoV-2 with central nervous system manifestations.
背景
SARS-CoV-2 主要影响呼吸系统。一些研究报告了与 SARS-CoV-2 相关的神经系统疾病。尽管报告的病例有所增加，但 COVID-19 感染引起的脑炎仍知之甚少。
病例
我们报告了一例 15 岁患者 SARS-CoV-2 的罕见表现。他的病情迅速发展为脑炎。五个月前，他曾出现 COVID-19 感染的轻微症状，并在没有任何后遗症的情况下康复。尽管进行了适当的治疗，但患者的病情仍非常严重。
结论
这是 SARS-CoV-2 的一种严重表现，伴有中枢神经系统表现。
