  • Title: Kawasaki-like syndrome possibly associated with immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome in an HIV-positive patient.
    Author: Velez AP, Menezes L, Crespo A.
    Journal: AIDS Read; 2006 Sep; 16(9):464-6. PubMed ID: 17024765.
    Abstract:
    The occurrence of Kawasaki disease is unusual in adults. We report a Kawasaki-like syndrome in a middle-aged HIV-positive man who had recently begun effective antiretroviral therapy. Onset of a significant inflammatory response after initiation of antiretroviral therapy prompted a diagnosis of Kawasaki-like syndrome associated with immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome.
