Glioblastoma (GBM) is a major concern for neurosurgeons and oncologists, being a malignant tumor with a high recurrence rate and reduced survival.

Few case reports exist detailing severe neurological sequelae following acute infection with COVID-19, such as encephalopathy, stroke, and coma. This case report details the diagnosis and treatment of a 16-year-old primigravida with no past medical history who presented to the emergency department with rhythmic tremors, urinary incontinence, and generalized weakness two weeks following initial COVID-19 diagnosis with admission for pneumonia and sepsis.
