ABSTRACT
We report the first manifestation of mania in an 85-year-old patient who had not previously received any psychiatric treatment. The patient had had Alzheimer's type dementia for 3 years. The COVID-19 infection took a mild course in accordance with the RKI guidelines. This was followed by a manic syndrome according to the ICD-10 with a clearly elevated mood, increased drive and behavior that occured for the first time in the patient's life.
