Title: Diarrhea as a Presenting Symptom of Coronavirus Disease 2019 in Children Cord-id: 1tjftnay Document date: 2020_8_28
ID: 1tjftnay
Snippet: Gastroenteritis is common among children and is usually caused by bacterial, viral, or parasitic gastrointestinal infections. The occurrence of gastroenteritis as the only symptom of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an uncommon condition. We present a 16-month-old girl that has recently been admitted to our hospital with vomiting, diarrhea, and lethargy, who was ultimately diagnosed with COVID-19. This case shows that the clinical manifestations of COVID-19 can be misleading in children.
