Multisystem inflammatory syndrome-children is considered as a paediatric hyper inflammatory condition prompted by severe acute respiratory system coronavirus 2, which has multi-organ involvement. Among them cervical lymphadenopathy is an unusual presentation in multisystem inflammatory syndrome-children. A case study of 17 year old post coronavirus disease 2019 male patient, whose clinical presentation and elevated inflammatory markers on blood tests lead to the diagnosis of multisystem inflammatory syndrome-children is explained here. Evidence from computed tomography, ultrasonography and fine needle aspiration cytology revealed the rare presentation of multisystem inflammatory syndrome-children with cervical lymphadenopathy. Standard guidelines were followed in the treatment of the condition and the prognosis was closely monitored clinically, the available objective evidences manifested progressive response and outcome.
