    Abstract Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) may occur following a viral infection. We report the case of a 30-year-old woman with thrombocytopenia who was subsequently diagnosed with ITP. Although she was asymptomatic, chest computed tomography (CT) showed ground-glass opacities in the lower lung regions. The patient had a positive severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test. She responded well to 400 mg/kg of intravenous immunoglobulin therapy. Coronavirus disease of 2019 or COVID-19 should be considered as a cause of ITP during the pandemic, and chest CT scans and RT-PCR tests should be performed in patients suspected of ITP.

    Abstract Rationale: Miller-Fisher syndrome (MFS) is a rare subtype of Guillain-Barre syndrome with classic features of ataxia, areflexia, and ophthalmoplegia that can be caused by a preceding infection including COVID-19. We present a current, asymptomatic thrombocytopenic COVID-19 infection as a cause of MFS in a 60-year-old male with a concurrent chronic immune neuropathy.
    Patient concerns: A 60-year-old male presenting with acute symptoms of MFS including ataxia, areflexia, and ophthalmoplegia on a chronic immune neuropathy for at least 1 year and concurrent asymptomatic COVID-19 positive infection.
    Diagnosis: MFS suspected secondary to a current thrombocytopenic COVID-19 infection.
    Interventions: Five days of intravenous immune globulin with continued monthly intravenous immune globulin as an outpatient, follow-up long-term in a neuromuscular clinic, electromyography as an outpatient, and continued physical therapy.
    Outcomes: The patient significantly improved after initial treatment.
    Lessons: The full effect of COVID-19 on the various Guillain-Barre syndrome subtypes is unknown, although it clearly can be a cause of the various variants including being caused by a current, asymptomatic infection.
