. An outbreak of coronavirus (COVID-19) declared an emergency of international public health importance. More information is now available on how COVID-19 affects people, including children and adolescents. SARS-CoV-2 is a new virus, and so far, there is insufficient data on what endocrinopathies it can cause in children, and how it affects patients with a history of endocrine pathology. Aim. Review containing data from foreign studies on the effects of coronavirus infection on the development and progression of child and adolescent endocrinopathies. Materials and methods . An analysis of publications containing data from studies of COVID-19 cases in children was carried out. Results . Currently, foreign studies indicate the provoking effect of COVID-19 on the development and progression of endocrinopathies in children and adolescents. Conclusion . Future studies should include a comprehensive assessment of the endocrine system during the acute phase and recovery phase after undergoing COVID-19, as there is no long-term follow-up until the significant impact of this virus on the development of endocrinopathies in children can be ruled out.
