Background: The 2019 Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-Cov-2) had been declared an emergency at the beginning and eventually progressing to a pandemic by World Health Organization. To date, more than 78,194,9471 people confirmed infected by SARS-Cov-2 and 1,736,752 dead, globally. Various characteristics were described in the case reports and clinical studies after SARS-Cov-2 hitting the whole world.
Case presentation：COVID-19 cases accompanied with cerebral infraction were hardly reported. Herein, we present a 74-yesrs-old patient who got SARS-Cov-2 infected at the late January and developed cerebral infraction. After accurate treatment, the old patient recovered and discharged from hospital on April 3, 2020. We keep on supervising the patient, after 7 months long physical condition surveillance, the patient live a normal life with on obvious sequelae detected.
Conclusions: In this paper, we present a elder COVID-19 case associated with cerebral infraction and whole process management in treatment. The elder patients lived a normal life after discharging from Huangshi central hospital which we believed that early introducing of traditional Chinese medicine played important roles in COVID-19 treatment. We aimed to broaden new cognition towards SARS-Cov-2 infection and suggest therapy to COVID-19 cases with cerebral infraction.

This paper does really help in elderly patient with brain atrophy who got infected with SARS-Cov-2. In the Feb, 2020, Traditional Chinese medicine were introduced in COVID-19 treatment. After recovery, this batch of patients developed little sequelae. Though more evidences and basic research need to clarify the elusive reason, I recommend acception of this original paper.
