ABSTRACT
This case report presents a patient with acute onset psychosis in the setting of a COVID-19 infection. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain was ordered to evaluate for organic etiologies which revealed cytotoxic lesions of the corpus callosum. These lesions can be associated with infectious diseases which cause inflammation. She was treated with an antipsychotic and later also with an antiepileptic. This case demonstrates that COVID-19 can affect multiple systems. Neuropsychiatric symptoms are possible and neuroimaging may be helpful, especially if symptoms are acute in onset.
