COVID-19 was initially described as a pulmonary disease. Increasing attention is now directed to extrapulmonary disease manifestations mediated by viral tropism to the vascular endothelium. Here, we report a case of an adult patient with COVID-19 who presented to the emergency department with neurological signs disproportionate to pulmonary symptoms and was found to have a subacute ischemic stroke. Imaging studies suggested an active inflammatory vasculopathy. The case highlights the utility of vascular wall imaging studies when positive findings are present on emergent CT angiography. Current treatment algorithms should consider the addition of adjunct intracranial vessel wall imaging to assess for inflammatory vasculopathy when a patient with acute or recent COVID infection presents to the emergency department with stroke.
