a case of covid-19 with splenic abscess

Coronavirus disease (covid- 19) is affecting millions of people around the world. it is mainly associated with respiratory problems, but extra pulmonary involvement has been described as well (1). during the covid-19 outbreak, several children developed a severe inflammatory disease, named multisystem inflammatory syndrome (mis-c). acute misc can have life-threatening consequences and requires intensive medical care. it is not known how long-term the results of acute misc are.  liver damage, gastrointestinal, endocrine and cardiovascular disorders have been detected [2]. the aim of this article is to consider complications of mis-c in patients with abdominal pain, due to the fact that despite abdominal pain is also a symptom of mis-c, it should not distract us from rare complications such as splenic abscess, which as a differential diagnosis can be fatal if left untreated. herein, we report a covid-19 patient with no signs of respiratory involvement presented with acute abdomen, and splenic abscess which was seen on the ct-scan later.
