  ABSTRACT: Pediatric inflammatory multisystem syndrome PIMS is a new entity of systemic inflammatory disease in children that appeared in the epidemic context of COVID-19 infection in April 2020. The pathophysiological mechanisms of PIMS are poorly understood and the hypothesis of a maladaptive hyperactive immune response, notably involving cytokines, is described in the literature. In our study, we report our experience regarding the clinical presentation, diagnosis, management and outcome of patients who presented with pediatric inflammatory multisystem syndrome post COVID-19.
