Abstract

Liver dysfunction is highlighted by several studies as a relevant complication in the context of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We present a pediatric patient with mild phenotype but transient severe liver injury. Hepatic damage should be considered even in mild cases of the disease to ensure prompt recognition and management.
