To analyse demographic data, provide an overview of the diverse clinico-radiological presentations of cerebral abscess in post covid ROCM.

We systematically reviewed 65 patients diagnosed with post covid ROCM with cerebral abscess admitted to the hospital during MAY 2021 to AUGUST 2021.Data pertaining to demographic variables, clinico-radiological features were analysed using percentage of total cases

Of 65 patients, incidence is more in the age group of 40-60yrs, males are more affected than females. Risk factors - inadvertent steroid use [ 89%], diabetes mellitus [ 81%], CKD [0.07%], HIV[ 0.03%].clinical profile include headache [97%], seizure [80%], vomitings [60%], focal neurologic deficit [18%], encephalopathy [3%]. Radiological profile showed abscess in temporal lobe [49%], frontal lobe [28%], occipital [14%], parietal [6%], optic nerve[ 3%].

Caution needs to be exercised with regard to Glycemic control, widespread usage of corticosteroids to reduce super infections. Expedient commencement of antifungal therapy together with surgical debridement help to improve the survival of these patients. In a country with prevalence of high risk factors and relatively poor resources, covid vaccination programmes should be the topmost priority  to avoid massive outbreaks, complications and mortality
