Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in a neonate secondary to COVID-19: a case report.
Ann Med Surg (Lond)
October 2023
Introduction And Importance: Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children secondary to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) (MIS-C) is very common and may present with clinical features similar to Kawasaki disease but is rarely reported in neonates (MIS-N). Any history of maternal upper respiratory tract infection should raise suspicion of MIS-N secondary to COVID-19 in critically ill neonates.
Case Presentation: The authors present a term neonate with gradually progressive respiratory distress requiring mechanical ventilation with marked improvement after starting immunoglobulin and steroids after blood investigations revealed high IgG COVID-19 antibody titers.
