| Popis: |
The deadly COVID-19 pandemic has affected more than 200 million people and has killed more than 4 million people worldwide. A number of neurological manifestations of COVID-19 infection have been described, though sleep related problems are less reported. We describe a case of restless leg syndrome related to COVID-19 infection, which improved after treatment with dopaminergic therapy. We discuss the possible pathophysiological mechanisms underlying sleep disturbances and RLS in a patient with COVID-19. The sleep related problems could be another important manifestation of the deadly virus and need to be actively looked for. |
