Keywords: congenital liver disease; multisystem inflammatory syndrome; pediatric liver transplantation; SARSCoV2 EN congenital liver disease multisystem inflammatory syndrome pediatric liver transplantation SARSCoV2 1 2 2 01/13/22 20220201 NES 220201 Abbreviations ALT Alanine transaminase AST Aspartate aminotransferase CRP C-reactive protein ESR Erythrocyte sedimentation rate MIS-C Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children To the editor, We read Petters et al.'s case report of a 3-year-old liver transplant recipient with multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) with great interest.1 Since MIS-C is a very rare complication of COVID-19, the probability of a child with liver transplant developing MIS-C should be extremely low. A second case of multisystem inflammatory syndrome associated with SARS-CoV-2 in a liver-transplanted child Initial laboratory tests showed inflammatory syndrome (C reactive protein (CRP), 58 mg/L; fibrinogen, 5.64 g/L; white blood cells, 6.8 G/L; neutrophils, 4.5 G/L; lymphocytes, 1.4 G/L) and normal hepatic function and enzymes.
