A Probable Association of Aseptic Meningoencephalitis, Complicated With Cerebral Salt Wasting Syndrome Following COVID-19 Vaccination: A Case Report

Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) occurred worldwide, and it affected millions of people around the world and killed millions of lives without a definitive treatment. During this challenging time, vaccine production has been hugely carried out leading to the invention of many vaccines against COVID-19. As any vaccine can have some side effects, COVID-19 vaccines also need surveillance and reporting side effects worldwide. Currently, more than 10 vaccines are available against SARS-CoV-2 infection globally. There are many neurological complications reported by SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. There are some reported neurological complications, such as ischemic stroke, Guillain-Barré syndrome, transverse myelitis, Bell’s palsy, cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, optic neuritis, meningoencephalitis, small fiber neuropathy, and Tolosa-Hunt syndrome. We present a case of an elderly man who presented with fever, fits, hyponatremia, and polyuria following COVID-19 vaccination and was found to have cerebral salt wasting (CSW) with the exclusion of other causes.
