Introduction: Community Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) is the disease that most kills children between 0 and 5 years of age in the world and is characterized as complicated (CAP) by the presence of one or more of the following complications: lung abscess, necrotizing pneumonia, parapneumonic effusion and pleural empyema, being a global public health problem. Objective: To carry out a systematic review of the literature in order to seek information about the clinical-epidemiological profile of children hospitalized for CCAP and to investigate data on the co-infection of CCAP with Covid-19 in this public. Research Question: “What is the clinical-epidemiological profile of patients in the pediatric age group with complicated pneumonia and what is its relationship with the co-infection of Covid-19?” Methodology: Systematic review of the literature published in the Pubmed database, from 2018 to 2023, following six methodological steps: 1) definition of specific objective, problem and research question; 2) establishment of the data source and criteria for inclusion and exclusion; 3) selection of information from the selected articles extracted through the research protocol; 4) application of reading through Bardin's method; 5) categorization of the main results extracted from the articles; 6) discussion between data extracted from selected articles and information from other studies and published documents. Results: Six articles were selected for analysis, which addressed the following topics related to PACC in children: concept, etiology, epidemiology, clinical aspects, prognosis, prevention/health education and co-infection with Covid-19. Conclusion: Although PACC has conceptualization, terminology, etiology and clinical repercussions addressed in this study, the factor related to co-infection between PACC and Covid-19 could not be evaluated due to the scarcity of studies, highlighting one of the main limitations of the study and the need for conducting more scientific searches that address such questions.
