摘要
We report a case of mild encephalitis/encephalopathy with a reversible splenial lesion (MERS) in a 31-year-old man. He had been diagnosed with mild COVID-19 3 days earlier and presented to the emergency department with altered mental status. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a high-intensity area confined to the splenium of the corpus callosum on diffusion-weighted imaging, which is consistent with MERS. MERS is characterized by a reversible change in the splenium of the corpus callosum. MERS secondary to COVID-19 has been reported recently. It is important to consider MERS in COVID-19 patients with impaired consciousness.
