- Abstract: Stroke as a presenting feature of COVID-19 infection is being increasingly recognized. We describe a case of a 46-year-old healthcare worker with COVID-19 who developed malignant cerebral infarction requiring emergency decompressive craniectomy. This case illustrates the neurosurgical implications associated with inflammatory and pro-coagulopathic derangements in COVID-19 disease.
