ABSTRACT
Beyond pulmonary presentation, COVID-19 infection can manifest with a variety of both acute and chronic neurologic and neuropsychiatric (concomitant) symptoms and diseases. Nonspecific symptoms such as headache, fatigue, olfactory and gustatory disturbance have been reported more frequently, and severe disease such as encephalopathy, encephalitis, and cerebrovascular events have been reported relatively rarely. The heterogeneity of neurologic and neuropsychiatric presentations is large, as well as the range of recorded prevalences. Older patients, pre-existing neurologic and non neurologic comorbidities and severe COVID-19 disease were associated with increased risk of severe neurologic complications and higher in-hospital mortality. Probable neurotropic pathomechanisms of SARS-CoV2 have been discussed, but a multifactorial genesis of neurologic/neuropsychiatric symptoms and disease beyond these is likely.
