Abstract:
This study reports a case of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C). Although MIS-C is currently not widespread in Japan, it is important to consider this syndrome, particularly when the patient is younger than 21 years and presents with fever and shock symptoms associated with COVID-19. According to the latest statistics updated by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in early 2021, the total number of MIS-C patients is only 1659 and there have been no reports from Japan. Therefore, information to accurately diagnose MIS-C is needed. This study is the first case report of MIS-C in Japan, and it proposes information to identify this serious syndrome.
