Sažetak
Multisystemic inflammatory syndrome in children associated with COVID-19 is a relatively new clinical syndrome similar to Kawasaki disease that occurs about 2–6 weeks after SARS-CoV-2 infection. The disease is characterized by fever and involvement of several organ systems (skin/mucous membranes, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular...) associated with elevated inflammatory parameters. There is no specific diagnostic test to confirm this disease, it is a diagnosis of exclusion, based on specific diagnostic criteria. The basis of treatment is the use of intravenous immunoglobulins and corticosteroids with symptomatic and supportive measures. The disease is characterized by tendency to cause cardiac complications, which is why it is important to systematically monitor these patients even after acute illness.
