ABSTRACT
SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome), rapidly escalated to a pandemic and has a significant impact on the quality of human life and activity, affecting millions of people. The presentation resumes data regarding the neurological impairment of patients affected by COVID-19;although the data was observational and limited, this examination would help us to broaden our understanding on the association between COVID-19 and the stroke. In order to support such observations I will present two cases of patients diagnosed with COVID-19 that have shown neurological damage, but with different altogether outcomes. The first case analysed, the age and comorbidities of the patient determined an unfavourable evolution, partly also due to tardiness in getting admitted. The apparition of the stroke after the serological negative bias SARS-CoV-2 denotes the complications recently emerged after the severe infection with COV-2, therefore while the viral infection remitted, the physical and pathological tumult determined the emergence of complications with unfavourable evolution. Although similar in certain ways to the first case, the second patient that also presented multiple unfavourable factors, such as old age, severe comorbidities and beyond that - multiple hospital admissions, recent neurosurgical intervention- clinical, immune-serum and biological evolutions have been favourable. Cerebrovascular events are somewhat common findings in COVID-19 infected patients and they could bare a multifactorial etiology. In order to better understand the impact of cerebrovascular events in COVID-19 infection, more precise and prospective data are needed.
