Materials and methods. A retrospective cohort study was done of 57 patients with COVID-19 pneumonia who were treated at the COVID-location of the Department of Vascular and Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery and Neurology of the Clinical Emergency Hospital of Lviv in the period from June 29 to September 28, 2020 (91 day).

Objective ‒ to highlight the high probability and features of neurological complications in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia.
Materials and methods. A retrospective cohort study was done of 57 patients with COVID-19 pneumonia who were treated at the COVID-location of the Department of Vascular and Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery and Neurology of the Clinical Emergency Hospital of Lviv in the period from June 29 to September 28, 2020 (91 day).
Results. Out of the 57 patients 14 (24.6 %) were selected by prospective analysis that had a clear association between COVID-19 pneumonia and neurological complications. Neurological complications of COVID-19 were manifested as ischemic stroke in 57.1 % of patients, encephalopathy with convulsions and without seizures ‒ in 35.7 %, polyneuropathy with tetraparesis, secondary purulent-inflammatory lesions of the spine ‒ in 7.2 %. Neurological complications occurred on average (20. 4 ± 6.1) days after the onset of the disease.
Conclusions. Lesions of the spine and structures in the spinal canal after coronavirus infection had a significant spread along the axis of the spine and severe course.
