Post-COVID-19 Demyelinating Disease and Its Effect on the Lower Urinary Tract: A Rare Case of a 14-Year-Old Man

The COVID-19 pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has led to a wide range of manifestations, including urological issues. Patients with COVID-19 frequently experience complications, such as acute kidney injury (AKI) and thromboembolism. Neurological problems, including demyelination in the central and peripheral nervous systems, have also been reported in COVID-19 cases. This neurological damage can be attributed to the virus's neurotropic and neuro-invasive properties. This case study presents a 14-year-old patient who developed severe lower urinary tract symptoms following a COVID-19 infection, leading to a demyelinating disease affecting the lower urinary tract. The patient was managed successfully with specialized neuro-urological care, highlighting the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration in managing post-COVID-19 complications. Clinicians need to be vigilant about potential neurological manifestations in COVID-19 patients, including those affecting the urinary system, and patients should seek specialized medical attention for persistent symptoms.
