Abstract：Abstract: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a highly infectious disease caused by severe acute respi-ratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. Although the virus mainly targets the respiratory sys-tem of humans, it also shows neurotropism and can invade the nervous system. Importantly, the involvement of the nervous system may be related to the poor prognosis and disease progression of patients. However, pathophysiological mechanisms of the neuroinvasive nature of SARS-CoV-2 are unclear. It is of great signi-ficance to explore the impact of the viral infection on the nervous system. Herein, possible mechanisms of nervous system complications and damage caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection are reviewed, so as to facilitate the early identification, treatment and rehabilitation of patients with COVID-19.
