Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 currently represents an ongoing global pandemic. Earlier reports suggested that children were either unaffected by the infection or suffered from a mild course of the disease. However, recently it was established that coronavirus might infect children in severe forms as multi-system inflammatory syndrome, or the so-called Kawasaki-like disease. The true scope of this disease spectrum and the precise consequence of coronavirus infection remains unclear. The current narrative review was planned to analyse studies in which aseptic meningitis was an initial presentation of the multi-system inflammatory syndrome to highlight the importance of coronavirus disease-2019 testing in youngsters presenting with Kawasaki-like symptoms, especially in the presence of a confirmed history of contact with a positive case. Therefore, a high suspicion index is needed to diagnose important presentation of coronavirus disease-2019 in childhood. This current review critically discusses the diversity in clinical presentation, guidelines for the diagnosis, and up-to-date treatment strategies.
