Novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a disease characterized by respiratory symptoms caused by novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2). Its pathogenesis is suggested to be related with ACE2 receptors, present in various organs. Children, as a special group of patients with COVID-19, have their own unique characteristics in terms of the disease’s course. The majority of children present with asymptomatic course or have mild symptoms. In severe cases COVID-19 may manifest as a multisystem inflammatory syndrome; thus, correct identification of children at risk is particularly important in the diagnostic process. The treatment options for this disease are still based on general therapy, and related drug therapy is still at the clinical trial stage.
