As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to be an ongoing issue, it is important to recognize MIS-A, a rare and potentially deadly clinical syndrome that can lead to profound cardiovascular complications. Non-invasive imaging modalities such as cardiac MRI can play a role in the identification of myocarditis. In addition to supportive management, adjunctive therapies such as IVIG may be efficacious in MIS-A and should be further investigated.
