Dr. Vikesh Rowjee

Vikesh Rowjee is a clinician-researcher whose work centers on pediatric health, with particular attention to acute and complex neurological presentations in children. Affiliated with South African clinical and academic settings, contributions reflect engagement with frontline hospital medicine and child health research in the context of emerging infectious diseases.

Published research examines neurological complications associated with COVID-19 and multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children. A reported case of choreoathetosis and dystonia highlights diagnostic complexity, overlap with autoimmune encephalitis, and the importance of timely immunomodulatory therapy. This work contributes to clinical awareness of atypical neuroinflammatory manifestations linked to SARS-CoV-2.

The available publication record is currently limited, yet it demonstrates strengths in detailed clinical observation, multidisciplinary management, and contribution to evolving pediatric COVID-19 literature. The focus on rare neurological sequelae underscores a commitment to improving recognition and outcomes in vulnerable pediatric populations.
