METHODS: Female patient, 10 years old, presenting arthralgia in the wrists and ankles, edema in hands and feet, persistent fever, appearance of diffuse, and itchy maculopapular rash associated with odynophagia and productive cough. Evolution of the rash to violaceous lesions on the face, trunk and limbs (upper and lower), in addition to the appearance of vesicles on the face, within 48 hours. CBC suggestive of an infectious condition, with CRP 307mg/L (insert reference value) and ESR 61mm. RT-PCR for SARS-CoV-2 positive. RESULTS: Diagnosis of pediatric multisystemic inflammatory syndrome temporarily associated with SARS-CoV2. Transferred to ICU for monitoring and intravenous human immunoglobulin initiated. Good evolution, with the disappearance of injuries and discharge with outpatient follow-up.
