Resumen
El SARS-CoV-2 fue concebido inicialmente como un síndrome principalmente respiratorio. Sin embargo, muy pronto comenzó a acumularse evidencia que revelaba el ataque del virus a otros órganos, incluyendo el sistema nervioso. Estos hallazgos concuerdan con literatura que revela cómo otros coronavirus (SARS-CoV-1 y MERS) han presentado un comportamiento similar. Este artículo procura explicar las distintas vías de entrada del SARS-CoV-2 al cerebro, identificar la sintomatología neurológica, neuropsiquiátrica y neuropsicológica resultante del virus, y sus efectos persistentes en la capacidad funcional de pacientes. Se extiende recomendaciones a pacientes que hayan experimentado el virus, y que en alguna medida procuren realizar una evaluación neurológica, recibir evaluación con medidas de tamizaje, y de ser necesario realizar una evaluación neuropsicológica comprensiva.
