Cerebrovascular accidents are the most common complications in premature neonates (gestational age <37 weeks). Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) and hydrocephaly are the most common presentations of these accidents. Premature neonates less than 28 week age or 1000 gr have maximum risk of cerebrovascular accidents with prevalence of 30 percent. Early screening in high risk pregnancies with real-time ultrasonography can detect these lesions and affect on final prognosis. The purpose of this study is evaluation of brain ultrasonongraphic findings of 60 premature neonates born in Yazd University Hospitals, Yazd, Iran and relationship between these findings and delivery type

Looking at the recent data provided in literature, we can see an association between cardiovascular and cerebrovascular accidents in COVID-19 thought to be related to severe inflammation and prothrombotic environment caused by the virus. This article reports a patient presenting with typical signs and symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 infection including flu like symptoms and respiratory distress. Initially a chest CT was performed that showed characteristic findings of atypical pneumonia caused by SARS-CoV-2 virus which was later confirmed with a nasopharyngeal PCR positive for COVID-19. During the course of admission patient developed unstable angina. Further testing confirmed an acute ST elevation myocardial infarction. While on anticoagulant treatment, patient showed signs of cerebrovascular accident. An emergency brain CT was ordered which did not yield any significant changes supporting our clinical diagnosis. Further diagnostic workup using magnetic resonance imaging disclosed evidence of cerebral ischemia in medial cerebral artery territory. Our study suggests that prophylactic anticoagulant regiment is not reassuring in COVID-19 patients and close observation and vigilance, can help clinicians to act timely and can improve patient survival.

COVID-19 is a new contagious viral pneumonia with various signs and symptoms, including loss of consciousness, liver injury, and cerebrovascular accident; however, there is little data on the manifestation and outcome of COVID-19 in liver transplant patients. Moreover, because transplant units in Iran were closed from the first day of the COVID-19 pandemic, accurate data about nosocomial COVID-19 and the liver transplant setting is not available. In this article, we introduce a liver transplant recipient with a final fatal outcome, who had had neurological manifestations, and whose COVID-19 manifestations began in the hospital within 2 days of transplant surgery
