Here, we report a case of a patient with SARS-CoV-2 infection that developed severe coagulopathy affecting both pulmonary and cerebral vessels. In the following days, the patient respiratory symptoms worsened with increasing need for oxygen therapy. Arterial and venous thrombotic events are recognized complications of SARS-CoV-2 infection (Klok et al. Of note, severe respiratory failure was heralded by a marked D-dimer increase 5 days earlier (Fig. 1) . This case underlines the importance of constant neurological monitoring in COVID-19 patients during ICU staying, especially in those with suspected thrombotic events, to detect possible neurological complications.
