ABSTRACT

Background: One of the reported neurological complications of severe COVID-19 is the demolition of the myelin sheath. Indeed, the complex immunological dysfunction provides a substrate for the development of demyelination. Nevertheless, few published reports in the literature describe demyelination in patients with COVID-19. Material(s) and Method(s): We describe a case of a 9-year-old girl who developed weakness of her right arm distal more than proximal. The patient has a history of COVID 19 two months before (in July 2022). The patient has a history of COVID 19 in May 2021. The patient showed improvement in power after starting steroid medicine. Result(s): MRI brain was done as part of the investigation and showed single peripherally enhancing lesion in the left posterior limb of internal capsule suggestive of demyelinating process. Conclusion(s): The case needs to be published to show the association between the demyelinating disease and COVID-19 in paediatrics.
