ABSTRACT
Introduction: Many studies have shown that coagulation disorders and increased risk of thrombosis may occur during coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection. Although cardiac or pulmonary vascular pathologies has been detected in most cases, cerebral sinus thrombosis are rare. During COVID-19 infection patients rarely present with neurological symptoms. Case Report: A 19-year-old man was admitted to our emergency department with neurological symptoms. Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) was detected in Brain Computerized Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging examinations. Our patient was hospitalized in the neurology department of our hospital for medical treatment and was discharged after clinical recovery. Discussion: In this case report we wanted to draw attention to cerebral venous sinus thrombosis which is a rare but treatable complication of COVID-19 infection in a young patient. We examined our patient in the light of literature. Conclusion: Clinicians should keep in mind the diagnosis of CVST that may occur due to infection associated thrombosis in COVID-19 patients presenting with neurological symptoms and consider adding anticoagulants to the treatment if necessary.
