| Core Tip |
Liver injury presenting with elevated levels of alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase is common in children infected with the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) virus. The mechanism of liver injury is not fully understood and is likely secondary to the viral invasion of the liver, hepato-toxic medications, and the patient’s own immune-mediated response. Liver injury in children is generally mild and resolves spontaneously but is usually seen in children with more severe illnesses. In addition, children with underlying non-alcoholic fatty liver disease or another chronic liver disease may have a higher risk of severe COVID-19 illness. Management of liver injury after COVID infection is supportive. Proactive vaccination may reduce the transmission of infection and the severity of the disease. |
