Atypical Presentations of COVID-19

Abstract

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by SARS-CoV-2, emerged in Wuhan, China in December 2019. It has now spread to all parts of the world and as of 26 th July 2020, more than 16 million cases and over 600,000 deaths have been reported. The commonest presentation is respiratory in nature with non-productive cough, fever and shortness of breath. Some COVID-19 patients have had atypical or unusual presentations involving the neurologi-cal, metabolic, gastrointestinal, renal, haematological, cutaneous and cardi-ovascular systems. In this mini-review, we have outlined the main atypical or unusual clinical presentations of COVID-19.
