Abstract:	Ischemic stroke (IS) and thrombosis of carotid arteries are life-threatening complications of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection. Increasing reports suggest an association between COVID-19 and IS, although the underlying mechanism remains uncertain. Material and Methods. We analysed single-centre experience to characterise the clinical characteristics, neuroimaging findings, and outcomes of IS in COVID-19 patients from 1st December 2019 to February 2022.
Description:	We report the incidence of IS in COVID-19 patients to be 3.3%, with a high mortality rate. Elevated d-dimer, fibrinogen and the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies appear to be prominent in COVID-19 patients with concomitant IS, but further mechanistic studies are required to elucidate their role in pathogenesis.
