چکیده

Introduction: SARS-CoV-2 is the cause of the recent pandemic. Although children are less affected by the virus, they can present with various presentations ranging from asymptomatic or fatigue and fever to multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C). Conclusions: Thrombotic events following COVID-19-associated MIS-C are an unlikely yet deadly event, especially in children. Prompt treatment with anticoagulants and corticosteroids alongside monitoring the patients are strongly advised.
