Sumario:Rash is a common feature of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), a postinfectious hyperinflammatory disease associated with prior severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection.

Here we describe the cutaneous findings observed in a series of children with MIS-C-associated rash.
