ÖZET
Koronavirüs hastalığı-2019 [coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID- 19)], ilk olarak Çin’in Wuhan kentinden başlayan ve kısa sürede tüm dünyaya yayılarak milyonlarca kişiyi etkileyen oldukça bulaşıcı bir hastalıktır. Başlangıçta COVID-19, şiddetli solunum yolu hastalığı olarak rapor ediliyordu. Bu dönemde tipik belirti ve bulgular ateş, öksürük ve nefes darlığı gibi bir solunum virüsünden beklenebilecek bulgular iken; virüsün hızlı bir şekilde yayılarak daha fazla kişiyi etkilemesi ve zamanla yapılan çalışmaların sayısının artması sonucunda bulguların birçok şekilde ortaya çıkabileceği fark edildi. Hâlsizlik, kırgınlık, yaygın kas-eklem ağrıları yanında baş dönmesi, tat ve koku alma problemleri gibi nörolojik semptomlarda bildirilmiştir. COVID-19’da tat ve koku almada kayıp gibi nörolojik semptomların yaygın olarak bildirilmesi, kranyal sinirlerin de etkileniyor olabileceğini düşündürmektedir. Bu bağlamda COVID-19, periferik yüz felci dâhil olmak üzere çeşitli nörolojik semptomlara neden olabilir. Bu olguda, COVID-19 tanısı konmuş periferik fasiyal paralizili genç bir erkek hastayı sunarak, COVID-19’un sebep olduğu nörolojik belirtilere katkıda bulunmayı amaçladık.
ABSTRACT
Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) is a highly contagious disease that first began in Wuhan province of China and rapidly spread all over the world in a short time, affecting millions of people. At the beginning, COVID-19 has been reported as a severe respiratory tract disease. During this period, typical signs and symptoms were those expected from a respiratory virus such as fever, cough and dyspnea, as a result of the rapid spread of the virus, affecting more people and increasing number of studies in the literature, it has been noticed that the symptoms can manifest in many ways. In addition to malaise, fatigue, diffuse muscle-joint pain, neurological symptoms such as dizziness, loss of taste and smell. Commonly reported neurological symptoms such as loss of taste and smell in COVID-19, suggest that cranial nerves may also be affected. In this context, COVID-19 can cause various neurological symptoms including peripheral facial paralysis. In this report, we aimed to present a young male patient with peripheral facial paralysis who was diagnosed with COVID-19, and to make a contribution to neurological symptoms caused by COVID-19.
