2021 
Neurological manifestations in COVID-19 are well described We describe a 15-year-old girl with acute focal deficit with altered sensorium due to massive right intracerebral hemorrhage following a hypertensive emergency and acute on chronic kidney disease She was found to be COVID positive by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) She gradually improved although her neurological deficit in the form of left hemiparesis persisted at discharge There might be a possible association between intracerebral hemorrhage and COVID-19, although the causation is still not well established
