Therapeutic Plasma Exchange for a Critically Ill Late Preterm Infant with Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome of Children: A Case Report and Review of the Literature
Funding This research did not receive any grant from the public, commercial, or not-for-profit sector funding agencies.Abstract
Multisystem inflammatory syndrome of children (MIS-C) is a clinical picture that entered the medical nomenclature after the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. Although it primarily affects older children, there have been a limited number of cases reported during the neonatal period. Herein we present a patient, a late preterm infant, with severe MIS-C-related cerebral sinus venous thrombosis who was successfully treated with therapeutic plasma exchange. Practitioners can consider therapeutic plasma exchange as a safe and effective option for the treatment of critically ill MIS-C cases.
Ethics Approval
Institutional Review Board approval was received from local Ethics Committee of Türkiye Health Sciences University.
Informed Consent
