The Unfamiliar Case of COVID-19 Induced Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis in a Pediatric Patient.

The SARS-CoV-2 virus responsible for COVID-19 infection has affected the world from the end of 2019 with pulmonary and extrapulmonary manifestations. Hematologic complications are a rare but severe complication of the COVID-19 infection. There have been very few cases reported in the past showing thrombotic complications in the pediatric age group. We present a case of a 12-year-old male child showing cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) who tested positive for COVID-19 at the same time. We highlight the potential of this complication in the pediatric age group and discuss the treatment, which is an infrequent phenomenon.
