摘要

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by SARS-CoV-2, emerged in Wuhan, China in December 2019. It has now spread to all parts of the world and as of 26^th July 2020, more than 16 million cases and over 600,000 deaths have been reported. The commonest presentation is respiratory in nature with non-productive cough, fever and shortness of breath. Some COVID-19 patients have had atypical or unusual presentations involving the neurological, metabolic, gastrointestinal, renal, haematological, cutaneous and cardiovascular systems. In this mini-review, we have outlined the main atypical or unusual clinical presentations of COVID-19.
