The first reports conveyed that the rate of infection and death from this virus among children is rare. However, evidence showed that there is no particular age range for the disease and children, infants and even neonates may be infected. Although COVID-19 primarily targets the host’s respiratory system, complications in other organs such as heart, kidney and liver have been observed as well. This mini-review attempts to consider the publications focused on the COVID-19 infection among children with emphasis on renal involvement and the treatment approach of this complication.
