Reported cases of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in neonates in the Arab WorldRésumé
In July 2021 Pawar et al. described a hyperinflammatory syndrome in eonates similar to multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) due to transplacental transfer of maternal SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. Their study, conducted in Kolhapur, India (September 1, 2020 – April 30, 2021), reviewed neonates born to mothers who contracted COVID-19 during pregnancy. They distinguished MIS-N from neonatal infections acquired postnatally1. By January 2022, a case series from five hospitals in Western India reported 20 neonates diagnosed with MIS-N between October 2020 and March 20212.
A systematic review by Shaiba LA et al. identified 47 neonates meeting confirmed or suspected MIS-N criteria as of October 20213. Among them, three neonates from two Arab countries were classified as suspected MIS- N based on CDC and WHO criteria for MIS-C diagnosis: Two one-day-old females from Saudi Arabia and one 14-day-old female from Qatar4.
