This case series examines cardiac MRI findings in four children and adolescents
admitted to intensive care in April 2020 for multisystem inflammatory syndrome
and Kawasaki disease-like features related to coronavirus disease 2019
(COVID-19). Acute myocarditis occurred less than 1 week after onset of fever and
gastrointestinal symptoms. Physical examination showed rash and cheilitis or
conjunctivitis. All patients recovered after intravenous immunoglobulin therapy.
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 reverse transcription polymerase
chain reaction was negative in nasopharyngeal, stool, and respiratory samples and
was positive on serology. Cardiac MRI showed diffuse myocardial edema on T2 short
tau inversion-recovery sequences and native T1 mapping, with no evidence of late
gadolinium enhancement suggestive of replacement fibrosis or focal necrosis.
These findings favor postinfectious myocarditis in children and adolescents with
COVID-19.
