ABSTRACT
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by a new coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, has become a serious health problem throughout the world. Although COVID-19 primarily presents as an acute respiratory tract infection, many neurological findings have also been described in patients. Neurological findings are classified into three groups as central, peripheral nervous system and musculoskeletal system. The most common central nervous system symptom is headache. Encephalitis, encephalopathy, seizures, acute ischemic stroke are also seen. The most common symptoms in the peripheral nervous system are loss of smell and taste. Myalgia, myositis and rhabdomyolysis also can be seen in musculoskeletal system involvement. Awareness of the neurological symptoms by physicians will be beneficial in early diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
