•MIS-C appears to be a SARS-CoV-2 related post-infection phenomenon that is distinct from Kawasaki disease.•Although outcomes are largely favorable, there is significant variation in MIS-C treatment. Most management regimens reported to date mirror that of KD; however, targeted therapy based on specific MIS-C phenotypes may have the potential to improve outcomes.•We recommend close monitoring by a multidisciplinary team, symptomatic treatment (e.g., intravenous immunoglobulin for KD-like symptoms, steroids/immunotherapy for multisystem inflammation), and long-term follow-up.•Further research is required to evaluate the effectiveness of current MIS-C treatments and to determine more refined therapies.
