ABSTRACT
Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in adults (MIS-A) is a rare condition that develops after coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We present two young adult male patients, aged 25 and 24 years, who admitted to our outpatient clinic with high fever, redness in the eyes, diarrhea, and maculopapular rash four weeks after after clinically mild COVID-19 infection. Echocardiography showed global hypokinesia in both cases. Therefore, the history of COVID-19 should be questioned, and the patient should be evaluated for possible MIS-A, especially when new heart failure is detected during the pandemic.
