The novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)
emerged in Wuhan, China and rapidly spread worldwide, with a vast
majority of confirmed cases presenting with respiratory symptoms.
Potential neurological manifestations and their pathophysiological
mechanisms have not been thoroughly established. In this narrative
review, we sought to present the neurological manifestations associated
with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Case reports, case series,
editorials, reviews, case-control and cohort studies were evaluated, and
relevant information was abstracted. Various reports of neurological
manifestations of previous coronavirus epidemics provide a roadmap
regarding potential neurological complications of COVID-19, due to many
shared characteristics between these viruses and SARS-CoV-2. Studies
from the current pandemic are accumulating and report COVID-19 patients
presenting with dizziness, headache, myalgias, hypogeusia and hyposmia,
but also with more serious manifestations including polyneuropathy,
myositis, cerebrovascular diseases, encephalitis and encephalopathy.
However, discrimination between causal relationship and incidental
comorbidity is often difficult. Severe COVID-19 shares common risk
factors with cerebrovascular diseases, and it is currently unclear
whether the infectionper serepresents an independent stroke risk factor.
Regardless of any direct or indirect neurological manifestations, the
COVID-19 pandemic has a huge impact on the management of neurological
patients, whether infected or not. In particular, the majority of stroke
services worldwide have been negatively influenced in terms of care
delivery and fear to access healthcare services. The effect on
healthcare quality in the field of other neurological diseases is
additionally evaluated.
