Introduction. This study aims to describe the clinical and paraclinical characteristics of Multisysteminflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C). Methods. A retrospective study encompassing 52 children diagnosed with MIS-C according to the World Health Organization criteria, over a 3-year period at Abderrahim Harrouchi Hospital in Morocco. Results. The median age was 6 years (IQR: 1-14), with a sex ratio of 1.16 (28 boys and 24 girls). Clinical manifestations were predominantly characterized by fever in all cases (100%), respiratory and gastrointestinal symptoms in 30 cases (58%) and 23 cases (44%) respectively, and shock in 9 cases (17%). We noted a myocarditis in 6 cases (12%). The treatment comprised intravenous human Immunoglobulin combined with methylprednisolone in all patients (100%). Conclusion.

摩洛哥与 COVID-19 感染有关的儿童多系统炎症综合征 (MIS-C)。
导言本研究旨在描述儿童多系统炎症综合征(MIS-C)的临床和辅助临床特征。研究方法。根据世界卫生组织的标准,对摩洛哥 Abderrahim Harrouchi 医院 3 年内诊断出的 52 名儿童多系统炎症综合征(MIS-C)患者进行回顾性研究。研究结果。中位年龄为 6 岁(IQR:1-14),性别比为 1.16(28 名男孩和 24 名女孩)。所有病例的临床表现均以发热为主(100%),出现呼吸道和胃肠道症状的病例分别为 30 例(58%)和 23 例(44%),出现休克的病例为 9 例(17%)。我们注意到有 6 例(12%)患者患有心肌炎。所有患者(100%)都接受了静脉注射人免疫球蛋白和甲基强的松龙的治疗。结论我们的 MIS-C 患者的特征与文献报道的相似,但还需要更多的研究来证实这些结果。
