White matter hyperintensities (WMHs) lacunar infarcts and cerebral microbleeds are well-established features associated with cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL).

Recently association between COVID-19 and CADASIL has been identified. We describe an unusual case of CADASIL diagnosed as a possible post-infectious manifestation of COVID-19 patient with imaging features closely resembling post-infectious encephalomyelitis.
