We report four children with laboratory evidence of severe acute respiratory syndrome - coronavirus - 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection presenting with persistent fever, mucocutaneous signs, and raised inflammatory markers associated with remarkable multi-organ involvement, particularly that of the gastrointestinal and cardiovascular systems. All of them responded well to immunosuppressive therapy, including intravenous immunoglobulin and methylprednisolone. The distinguishing clinical characteristics found in MIS-C include the age of the child, gastrointestinal symptoms, and hypotension without coronary involvement. Immediate medical care is needed for a better outcome, and most children need management in an intensive care unit.","PeriodicalId":30600,"journal":{"name":"Anuradhapura Medical Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43983764","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
