    Author: Pajerek J, Kosina F, Stastný J, Simkovicová O.
    Journal: Cas Lek Cesk; 1989 May 12; 128(20):631-3. PubMed ID: 2752400.
    Abstract:
    The authors report a case involving a five-month old infant with protracted fever, lymphadenitis, exanthema, diarrhoea and sudden death. At post mortem, serological proof was discovered of a significant increase in antibodies against ornithosis. Autopsy revealed signs indicative of ornithosis and, simultaneously, of changes in the sense of multisystem vasculitis, predominantly in the region of the coronary bed as characteristic of Kawasaki's syndrome.
