We describe a very young child who developed an acute ischemic stroke from a LAO, while affected by COVID-19 and MIS-C, and whom we treated successfully with thrombectomy. We compare his clinical and imaging findings with those of the existing case reports, and we explore the multifactorial nature of such a neurovascular complication, particularly in the context of the most recent publications regarding the multifactorial endothelial derangements produced by the illness.
