BACKGROUND: In December 2019, in Wuhan, a new virus emerged, causing severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) secondary to infection by a type of coronavirus, causing coronavirus disease (COVID-19). A new virus emerged, causing severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) originated in the city of Wuhan, China, in December 2019. [6, 9] We decided to present the following remarkable case from a patient with pituitary tumor apoplexy infected with SARS-CoV-2. Unfortunately, given the patient's condition and his timely isolation in the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) floor, it was not possible to perform a brain MRI scan. e CNS involvement in COVID-19 infection includes cerebrovascular events due to endothelial dysfunction, with pituitary apoplexy being an unusual presentation, a situation that should be confirmed in the future.
