摘要
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is known to have neurological manifestations and one of them is acute transverse myelitis (ATM). Despite being exceedingly rare (1.34-4.6 cases per million/year), COVID-19-associated ATM cases have continuously been reported and have significant health impact to patients. This case report presents a previously healthy, unvaccinated male who developed COVID-19-associated ATM.
