ABSTRACT
COVID-19 pandemic is a Global burden to Public Health. An array of Neurological Manifestations have been reported to be associated with COVID-19 like Anosmia, Cerebrovascular accident, Meningitis, Encephalitis, Seizures, Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS), Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis (ADEM) etc. Generalised Myoclonus and Cerebellar Ataxia, is a less common Neurological Manifestation when compared to others. Here, we report a case of Generalized Myoclonus and Cerebellar Ataxia following COVID-19 infection. The possible mechanisms of Myoclonus and Ataxia following COVID-19 are also discussed
ABSTRACT
Neurological deficits can occur following snake bite. It is usually due to intracerebral haemorrhage or subarachnoid bleed as a result of depletion of clotting factors. A healthy 14-years-old male developed bilateral ptosis and altered sensorium within 3 hours of snake bite. CT Brain revealed bilateral cerebellar and right occipital infarction with mass effect. Clotting time and bleeding time were normal. The possible mechanism for infarction in this patient is discussed.
