Atrial Fibrillation as a Rare Complication of Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C): A Case Report

Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is known to represent a hyperinflammatory state with multi-organ involvement. Many cardiac manifestations of MIS-C have been described in the literature, including myopericarditis, congestive heart failure, and arrhythmias. We present a 17-year-o...

description Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is known to represent a hyperinflammatory state with multi-organ involvement. Many cardiac manifestations of MIS-C have been described in the literature, including myopericarditis, congestive heart failure, and arrhythmias. We present a 17-year-old male who initially presented in shock with multi-organ failure and met the diagnostic criteria for MIS-C to develop atrial fibrillation later. Atrial fibrillation resolved after initiating treatment for MIS-C. In this paper, we will discuss arrhythmias linked to MIS-C and will describe the course that our patient followed.
