Kawasaki disease in the adult: a case report and review of the literature.

Juan Carlos Rozo1, John L Jefferies, Benjamin W Eidem, Patrick J Cook.   

Abstract

Kawasaki disease, predominantly a disease of childhood, includes such symptoms as acute vasculitis, mucosal inflammation, rash, cervical adenopathy, and edema. Its most severe forms are associated with coronary artery aneurysms. We report a rare case of this disease in an asymptomatic adult and review its epidemiology, etiology, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis.
