    Abstract:
    Kawasaki disease is a common childhood vasculitis. Fever and lymphadenopathy, at times, are the only clinical presentation of Kawasaki disease, which mimics infectious lymphadenitis, especially, when other features are yet to evolve. In such a scenario, ultrasonography of cervical lymph nodes can help to differentiate Kawasaki disease lymphadenitis from infectious lymphadenitis. We present one such patient who was initially diagnosed as having bacterial lymphadenitis; however, ultrasonography of the neck lymph nodes showed typical imaging features described with Kawasaki disease lymphadenitis.
