?:abstract
  • A 53-year-old female admitted to the hospital for generalized weakness, fever, and cough, tested positive for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). She experienced cardiac arrest and then developed a deep-venous thrombosis and pneumonia. She then developed new-onset paraplegia due to an epidural abscess found on thoracic-spine imaging. After surgical removal of the epidural abscess, the patient improved clinically. This is a unique case report of a patient developing paraplegia secondary to an epidural abscess as a serious complication of COVID-19 infection.
