Abstract

Multiple manifestations have been associated with the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus. Among them are mononeuritis multiplex (MNM) and other neurological complications, whose connection to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is still unclear. One of the most common sites of nerve injury is the radial nerve, which can be treated with both nerve or tendon transfer. In this case report, a patient who was afflicted with severe COVID-19 infection and developed mono neuritis multiplex after prolonged mechanical ventilation with radial nerve palsy was treated with multiple tendon transfers. This is a way to use an established mechanism of resolving the manifestations of radial nerve palsy to aid in the recovery of COVID-19-related mononeuritis multiplex.
