It is a quick, inexpensive, radiation-free tool with a point-of-care option allowing for safe screening and/or follow-up. This paper presents the scanning technique, normal lung image, detectable pathologies, and exemplary applications in different disorders. Although lung ultrasound is of particular importance for the diagnosis of pneumonia in children, it has not been included in official guidelines so far. Advantages of lung ultrasound and advances in medical technology should increase the popularity of this technique as a complement to physical examination.","PeriodicalId":39653,"journal":{"name":"Pediatria Polska","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70497875","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}

The main cause of this disease is dysregulation of the immune homeostasis. We report the first case of PIMS-TS in the Polish Mother’s Memorial Hospital Research Institute in Lodz. Many non-specific symptoms presented by the patient were the cause of the primary care physician’s therapeutic failure, which resulted in the boy being transferred to the district hospital and then to the institute in Lodz. During the complex diagnostic process anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in the IgM and IgG classes were detected. The initial diagnosis of PIMS-TS was made, and treatment with immunoglobulins and acetylsalicylic acid was initiated. The patient’s condition improved the following day. The aim of this report is to emphasize that typical symptoms do not always determine known disease entities, and to point out the need to constantly improve one’s knowledge.","PeriodicalId":39653,"journal":{"name":"Pediatria Polska","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70497735","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}
