COVID-19 review shows that benefits of vaccinating children and adolescents appear to outweigh risks of post-vaccination myopericarditis.

Aim: Myopericarditis after COVID-19 vaccination were the most serious adverse events reported in children over 5 years of age. We want to summarise these cases, describing their incidence, clinical features, diagnostic pathways, therapeutic strategies and outcome.

Methods: A systematic review of the literature was conducted until 20 March 2022 by bibliographic electronic databases.
