Kawasaki disease (KD) or mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome is a rare autoimmune vasculitis affecting small and medium sized arteries in young children characterized by a fever lasting longer than five days. The child may also have signs of bilateral conjunctivitis, cervical lymphadenopathy, a polymorphous rash, cracking of the lips and changes in the oral mucosa, and desquamation of the extremities. Having 4 or 5 of these symptoms classes the child as having complete KD; incomplete or atypical KD is characterized by a patient displaying 3 or fewer of these signs accompanying the fever at diagnosis. KD has been shown to be the most common cause of acquired heart disease in children, leading to coronary artery aneurysms.
