Before blaming SARS-CoV-2 for cerebrovascular disease in children, all differentials need to be ruled out
We read with interest the article by Spanelova et al. about four pediatric patients with cerebrovascular complications after a putative SARS-CoV-2 infection [1]. Patient-1 was diagnosed with subdural hematoma (SDH) and meningitis, patient-2 with cerebral vasculitis, patient-3 with lacunar stroke, and patient-4 with venous sinus thrombosis (VST) with haemorrhage [1]. It was concluded that SARS-CoV-2 infections in children can be complicated by cerebro-vascular disease [1]. The study is promising but raises concerns that should be discussed.

Case Report: Cerebrovascular Events Associated With Bacterial and SARS-CoV-2 Infections in an Adolescent
We report the case of an adolescent who presented with febrile meningism and stupor. Clinical, biological, and radiological features favored the diagnosis of Lemierre syndrome (LS), with Fusobacterium necrophorum infection (sphenoid sinusitis and meningitis) and intracranial vasculitis. The patient had concurrent SARS-CoV-2 infection. Despite medical and surgical antimicrobial treatment, stroke prevention, and venous thrombosis prevention, he presented with severe cerebrovascular complications. Venous thrombosis and stroke were observed, with an extension of intracranial vasculitis, and lead to death. As both F. necrophoru...
