Abstract
Background: SARS-CoV-2 infection can lead to a potentially life-threatening condition known as SARS-CoV-2-associated multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), which differs from the severe lung disease and thrombotic complications commonly seen in adults. Recently, similar cases have been identified in adults, characterized by a clinical multisystem inflammatory syndrome referred to as MIS-A, which can emerge as a late and severe complication of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Case Presentation: We report two cases of MIS-A that were recently admitted to our hospital. Both patients developed a severe multisystem inflammatory syndrome despite experiencing only mild SARS-CoV-2 infection. Key clinical features in both cases included significant systemic inflammation, prominent cardiac involvement, and thrombocytopenia. Prior SARS-CoV-2 infection was confirmed through serological testing. Treatment protocols for MIS-C, including steroids and immunoglobulins, proved effective for both patients. Conclusions: Clinicians should remain vigilant for MIS-A in the context of ongoing SARS-CoV-2 infection worldwide. This infection, even when presenting with mild or no symptoms, can progress to a life-threatening hyperinflammatory syndrome with cardiac implications if not promptly recognized and treated.
