Abstract
|
|
|
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) which causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) emerged in December 2019. Unfortunately, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic on March 2020. The pulmonary manifestations of COVID-19 have been well-described, and neurological manifestations including headache, anosmia, altered consciousness, stroke, and post-infectious autoimmunity, are being increasingly recognized. Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic is concerning for patients with neuroimmunological disorders who are receiving immunotherapy. It is not known if immunosuppression increases the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection or worsens infection severity. Although national and international medical societies have developed several guidelines and statements, there is no consensus on neurological immunotherapy in COVID-19 patients. In this Review, we aimed to summarize international recommendations or currently available published reports, and provide management approaches to neurological immunotherapy in the COVID-19 era.
