    With rates of hospitalisation and mortality from novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) increasing, there is understandable concern across the UK for medical professionals and the general public. We hope to highlight the challenges faced by children and health-care professionals involved in their care, and propose key strategies to address these challenges.

    • Gastrointestinal features in children with COVID-19: an observation of varied presentation in eight children Lucinda Tullie Kathryn Ford May Bisharat Tom Watson Hemanshoo Thakkar Dhanya Mullassery et al. Show all authors Published:May 19, 2020DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/S2352-4642(20)30165-6 We report eight children with COVID-19 presenting at a single centre in the UK with symptoms of atypical appendicitis before rapid deterioration requiring hospitalisation and, in some cases, intensive care support. All children had imaging confirming terminal ileitis and no surgical intervention was required at the time of writing. We draw attention to an unusual presentation of COVID-19 in children and adolescents and we recommend abdominal imaging when investigating for possible appendicitis. There have been 4?730?968 confirmed cases and 315?488 deaths from COVID-19 worldwide since emergence of the infection in December, 2019, in Wuhan, China.1 To date, most of the case load and mortality has been seen in the adult population. Currently in the UK, there is concern regarding an inflammatory syndrome related to COVID-19 in children with gastrointestinal symptoms in the presence of both positive and negative severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) PCR tests.2, 3
