  • Title: Intestinal ischaemia as a severe presentation of Kawasaki disease leading to short-bowel syndrome.
    Author: Godart F, Bakhti OM, Bonnevalle M.
    Journal: Cardiol Young; 2014 Jun; 24(3):567-70. PubMed ID: 23962748.
    Abstract:
    The authors describe a case of Kawasaki disease who presented fever, coronary artery aneurysm, and ischaemic intestinal obstruction requiring stage resections. A review of literature of such association is performed. Atypical Kawasaki disease is more complex to diagnose and in combination of persistent fever with no definite cause and surgical abdominal pain, Kawasaki disease should be considered in the differential diagnosis.
