AB  - An alarming and distressing delayed inflammatory response to Coronavirus Disease 
      2019 (COVID-19) has emerged in children and adolescents, a population previously 
      thought to have been largely spared by this global pandemic. In April 2020, 
      clinicians in the United Kingdom identified eight cases of previously healthy 
      children testing positive for current or recent infection with Severe Acute 
      Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) presenting with Kawasaki 
      disease-like features. From April 16 to May 4, 2020, New York City reported that 
      15 patients aged 2-15 years were hospitalized with a similar multisystem 
      inflammatory syndrome, many requiring intensive care unit (ICU) admission. This 
      syndrome is referred to either as pediatric inflammatory multisystem syndrome, or 
      multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C). We present the case of an 
      eight-year-old with MIS-C who developed carotid artery dissection following 
      venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) cannulation, followed 
      by a subsequent hemorrhagic stroke in the basal ganglia.
