Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children, also known as MIS-C, is a new entity linked to infection due to SARS-CoV-2. This pathology widely affects healthy children, many of them develop mild respiratory symptoms during acute infection, several weeks later they develop fever and gastrointestinal, dermatological, and cardiac signs and symptoms which rapidly progresses to a multiorgan dysfunction syndrome. In addition, a great inflammatory compromise is generated with an increase in C-reactive protein (CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), among others. Many of these patients must be admitted to the ICU due to the severe symptoms of multi-organ dysfunction. Immunoglobulins, systemic corticosteroids, and even vasoactive drugs are necessary for treatment. OBJETIVE The objective of this review is to perform an analysis of recent information about multisystemic inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C). METHODS We perform a review of studies related to MIS-C published from April through September 2020. The search was developed in medical databases such as PubMed, NEJM, JAMA and The Lancet. Using as search expressions “MIS-C”, “Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome”; ““COVID-19““ and ““SARS-CoV-2““. RESULTS We identified 76 articles, among them 60 met the selection criteria, in addition 9 articles related to Covid-19 in pediatric population were accepted. CONCLUSIONS Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a new entity associated with SARS-CoV-2’S infection, it is considered a severe form of Covid 19 that is potentially lethal. However, with early diagnosis and timely treatment, a large proportion of those affected survive without complications.
