Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a worldwide pandemic since the end of 2019. There is an increasing number of reports on nervous system symptoms, among which encephalitis is considered a serious neurological complication of COVID-19, but there are few reports of this complication in China. Acute encephalitis has severe symptoms. If it is not identified early and treated in time, the mortality is high and the prognosis is poor. During the current global epidemic, it is necessary to pay attention to the severe nervous system symptoms of COVID-19. Therefore, this article summarizes the clinical features of COVID-19 complicated by acute encephalitis through literature review and a detailed analysis of medical records, so as to provide a reference for clinicians to deal with the cases of COVID-19 complicated by acute encephalitis.
