Bacterial coinfection and COVID-19 have been reported in pediatric populations. We describe a case of Sydenham's chorea, which is exceedingly rare in developed countries, with concurrent COVID-19. Discussed here is the clinical course of an 8-year-old COVID-positive female with pure Sydenham's chorea and subclinical carditis from acute rheumatic fever. To our knowledge, there are no documented reports of acute rheumatic fever in a pediatric patient with coexisting COVID-19 infection.
在儿科人群中已报告有细菌合并感染和新冠病毒病(COVID-19)的情况。我们描述了1例在发达国家极为罕见的西德纳姆舞蹈病合并COVID-19的病例。本文讨论了1名8岁新冠病毒检测呈阳性的女性患者的临床病程,该患者患有单纯性西德纳姆舞蹈病和急性风湿热所致的亚临床心肌炎。据我们所知,尚无关于COVID-19合并感染的儿科患者发生急性风湿热的文献报道。
