Patientswere compared in terms of age, National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), risk factors,radiological findings, inpatient treatment, intubation, and mortality rates.Results: Out of 26 cases of ischemic stroke, 11 (42.3%) were male and 15 (57.7%) werefemale. In terms of infarction localization, the cause was medial cerebral artery (MCA) in 4(15.4%) patients, top of the basilar in 2 (7.7%) patients, basilar artery in 1 (3.8%) patient,lacunar in 9 (34.6%) patients and anterior system in 10 (38.5%) patients. There was nosignificant difference in terms of D-dimer and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels according todisease severity (both p=0.262). Three (0.38%) patients presented with stroke findings andwere diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2. Cryptogenic stroke was detected in 8 (30.8%) of theSARS-CoV-2 cases. Stroke frequency was calculated as 3.3% among the SARS-CoV-2 casesin Sakarya city.Conclusion: This is the first study to identify the frequency of stroke among SARS-CoV-2patients in Sakarya city and Turkey. Our study is important as it shows that preventing ortreating ischemic stroke in SARS-CoV-2 cases contributes greatly to the reduction ofmortality.en_US
