الوصف: Background The systemic manifestations of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) include hyperinflammatory reactions in various organs. Recent studies showed evidence for the frequent involvement of central nervous system in affected patients; however, little is known about clinical features of cerebrovascular diseases in childhood-onset COVID-19. Case presentation A 10-year-old boy recovered from SARS-CoV-2 infection without complication. On 14 days after infection, he presented with loss of consciousness. A head computed tomography detected a ruptured cerebral aneurysm at the left posterior cerebral artery accompanying subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Immediate surgical intervention did not rescue the patient, resulting in the demise 7 days after admission. Serological and genetic tests excluded the diagnosis of vasculitis and connective tissue disorders. Retrospective analysis showed markedly higher levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6 and IL-8 in the cerebrospinal fluid than the serum sample concurrently obtained. A review of literature indicated that adult patients with COVID-19 have a risk for the later development of SAH during the convalescent phase of COVID-19. Conclusions SAH is a severe complication of COVID-19 in children and adults who have asymptomatic cerebrovascular aneurysms. The markedly high levels of cytokines detected in the cerebrospinal fluid suggested that intracranial hyperinflammatory condition might be one of the possible mechanisms involved in the rupture of a preexisting cerebrovascular aneurysms.
