RESUMEN
Durante los meses iniciales de la pandemia de COVID-19, se pensaba que la enfermedad en los niños era benigna y poco frecuente, a partir de marzo ha surgido el síndrome inflamatorio multisistémico (MIS-C) en niños asociado con la pandemia como una enfermedad grave. Tiene similitudes con la enfermedad de Kawasaki, aunque también importantes diferencias, como mayor edad, adicionales síntomas abdominales, escasos respiratorios, incremento en la severidad de la inflamación, falla cardiaca y choque. Especulamos en esta revisión: 1) si MIS-C es una acelerada forma de Kawasaki, 2) si se trata de una entidad diferente, o 3) simplemente MIS-C es una variante grave de COVID-19 en niños. La presencia del síndrome inflamatorio multisistémico en niños asociado con COVID-19 (MIS-C o PIMS-TS), en buena parte del mundo, debe alertar a la comunidad médica en los países en los que por el momento no se ha reconocido.
