Abstract

The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARSCoV 2) has instigated a global pandemic as a formidable and highly contagious infectious disease. Although the respiratory system remains the most frequently affected organ, several case reports have revealed that the complications are not merely limited to the respiratory system, and neurotropic and neuroinvasive properties have also been observed, leading to neurological diseases. In the present paper, it was intended to review the possible neuroinvasive routes of SARS-CoV-2 and its mechanisms that may cause neurological damage. Additionally, the neurological manifestations of COVID-19 across the globe were discussed with emphasis on Iran, while highlighting the impact of SARS-CoV-2 on the central and peripheral nervous systems
