Tract specific CNS involvement post COVID-19 vaccine: A case report

Abstract

We hereby report an interesting case of tractopathy following COVID-19 vaccine. Acute transverse myelitis following COVID-19 infection or vaccination is well documented. However, to the best of our knowledge, no case of selective tract involvement following COVID-19 vaccine has been reported so far. One case of tract-specific central nervous system involvement following COVID-19 infection has been reported from India. We report the case of a 46-year-old male who developed clinical and radiological evidence of tractopathy involving the corticospinal tracts and posterior columns following the first dose of the Covishield vaccine.
