  • Title: A case of guttate psoriasis following Kawasaki disease.
    Author: Han MH, Jang KA, Sung KJ, Moon KC, Koh JK, Choi JH.
    Journal: Br J Dermatol; 2000 Mar; 142(3):548-50. PubMed ID: 10735970.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of guttate psoriasis following Kawasaki disease, in a patient with Staphylococcus aureus demonstrated in a throat swab. We suggest that preceding staphylococcal infection can play a key role in the pathogenesis of some cases of guttate psoriasis, possibly by the production of superantigens.
