ABSTRACT
Since December 2019, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection has spread worldwide. We all are concerned about immunocompromised children, especially hematologic and oncologic pediatric patients. We want to share our experience with 2 pediatric cancer patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection. Both presented mild disease and good outcome. No respiratory symptoms were identified, but both developed diarrhea, one probably secondary to lopinavir/ritonavir. Pediatric cancer patients may have milder disease than adults, but larger studies are needed to make conclusions.
