Resumo

Objetivo: Realizar uma revisão integrativa visando esclarecer a prevalência dos casos de encefalite causadas por Covid-19 na faixa etária pediátrica, estabelecendo os pontos em comum permitindo elucidar a relação dessas duas patologias. Métodos: Foram avaliados um total de 375 artigos, por meio dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão, permanecendo um total de 8 artigos detalhados em forma de tabela. Resultados: Foi identificada prevalência do sexo masculino (62,5%) e maior incidência entre 10 e 18 anos de idade. Maioria dos casos foram inicialmente conduzidos como encefalite, com posterior testagem e confirmação viral no líquor. Provando que os sintomas neurológicos podem representar os primeiros sintomas da infecção pelo SARS-CoV-2, e devem ser levados em conta durante as avaliações clínicas. Considerações finais: Apesar do isolamento viral no líquor ser infrequente, é de suma importância a investigação do COVID em pacientes pediátricos com quadros neurológicos. Visando o diagnóstico precoce e melhor condução clínica do caso a curto e longo prazo e permitindo desfecho clínico positivo.
