Since the 2019 worldwide pandemic, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-Cov-2) responsible for COVID-19 disease, not only had global economic repercussions but millions of individuals health were also put at risk. Like any other respiratory illness, COVID-19 has a variety of presentations and radiological features. While COVID-19 infections in the paediatric population generally present with better prognosis and lower mortality rates when compared to those of adults, in the vulnerable populations however, severe presentations are often more frequent and can have catastrophic consequences. This paper will specifically address paediatric presentations of COVID-19 including those suffering from multisystem inflammation, along with their radiologic manifestations and image findings.
