Abstract


Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is one of the worst pandemics in history, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2, a novel zoonotic coronavirus. COVID-19 disease can present from asymptomatic or mild infection to rapidly progressive, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and death. Neurological presentation is not so uncommon now. Super refractory status epilepticus (SRSE) can be a possible manifestation of COVID-19 disease. Here, we report a patient affected by COVID-19 who presented with SRSE.
