Hypophysitis In An Elderly Woman With COVID-19 - A Case Report

We report a case of an 87-year-old woman with hyperactive delirium about seven days after diarrhea. Serology for COVID-19, collected at the time of behavioral symptoms, was positive. She evolved with a decreased level of consciousness and normal neuroimaging and electroencephalogram tests. Endocrinological investigation found dysfunction of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis, with a good response to hormone replacement. In conclusion, this report emphasizes the importance of being alert to atypical clinical manifestations and unusual complications against the background of Covid-19.
