In‐depth cardiovascular and pulmonary assessments in children with multisystem inflammatory syndrome after SARS‐CoV‐2 infection: A case series study

We assessed PET‐CT myocardial blood flow (MBF) using N‐13 ammonia, brachial flow‐mediated dilation, and cardiopulmonary exercise test in five post‐discarged MIS‐C survivors. None of the patients (median age: 9, range: 7‐18 years; 3 females; 2 males) had preexisting pediatric chronic conditions. At t...

Zusammenfassung:We assessed PET‐CT myocardial blood flow (MBF) using N‐13 ammonia, brachial flow‐mediated dilation, and cardiopulmonary exercise test in five post‐discarged MIS‐C survivors. None of the patients (median age: 9, range: 7‐18 years; 3 females; 2 males) had preexisting pediatric chronic conditions. At the follow‐up visit, two patients exhibited severe perfusion defect developed in the left ventricular cavity, suggesting extensive myocardial ischemia (MBF
