  ABSTRACT: This study reports two observations of heart failure diagnosed in the context of SARS-CoV 2 infection in children at the University Hospital Center of Libreville, Gabon. Long considered exempted from serious forms of Covid-19 infection, the fatal evolution of one of the two cases proves that there is an interest for a more rigorous approach in their management in a pandemic context. The multisystem inflammatory syndrome associated with this virus in children can be responsible for cardiac manifestations that can be life-threatening. Early diagnosis and treatment are necessary to reduce mortality. However, this approach is made difficult in our regions by the limited biomedical equipment and the absence of essential therapies as noted in these two observations.
