COVID-19 has primarily been reported as a respiratory illness, but involvement of other organ systems has been reported. We describe a case of a postpartum with COVID-19 who had cerebral vasculitis. The patient presented with headache, blurring of vision, right-sided body weakness, and incoordination. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and angiography (MRA) showed a small acute hemorrhage on the left occipital lobe with associated acute subarachnoid hemorrhage along the parietal and occipital convexities and bilateral moderate to severe narrowing of the cerebral vessels. The patient was discharged asymptomatic. On follow-up, patient had no residual neurologic deficits, and repeat cranial MRI/MRA showed complete resolution of the vasculitis. This report was compatible with the pattern of viral-induced vasculitis and provides support to the mechanism of COVID-19-associated neurologic manifestation.
