Severe Agitation as an Unusual Presentation of Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children.

Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a rare hyperinflammatory syndrome that mainly affects children after a primary infection with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), with the possibility of severe and lethal complications. We report a case of a unique presentation of MIS-C in a four-year-old boy who presented with severe agitation, muscle spasms, and two days of fever. Other findings consistent with MIS-C were revealed later, and he was managed with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and steroids. He showed a dramatic response of improvement and was discharged. This case report aimed to raise health professionals' awareness about the atypical presentations of MIS-C and the importance of early diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up MIS-C cases to avoid complications affecting children's lives.
