Abstract
Grisel’s Syndrome (GS) is a rare, non-traumatic and rotatory atlantoaxial subluxation. Upper airways, head and neck infections and surgical procedures are the main causes of this syndrome. Post COVID GS is not studied on the literature. Although we believe that COVID-19 spreading in upper airways, related immune response and over-relaxation of ligaments can lead to C1-C2 rotatory subluxation and GS, the exact pathophysiology of this process is unknown. We conclude that the virus may present with an extensive range of manifestations such as GS and should be considered in children with COVID-19 infection. As a result, we report 3 GS cases associated with COVID-19 infection for the first time.
