  • Title: [Present views on Kawasaki's syndrome (author's transl)].
    Author: Benichou JJ, Labrune B.
    Journal: Nouv Presse Med; 1981 May 02; 10(20):1649-51. PubMed ID: 7255127.
    Abstract:
    Recent findings seem to confirm that the pathophysiological mechanism responsible for Kawasaki's syndrome is of immunological origin. Cardiac involvement (coronary aneurysm/thrombosis) is not uncommon, and its influence on prognosis remains a cause for concern. Improved diagnostic (ultrasonography) and therapeutic approaches, together with prolonged surveillance of the patients, appear to have reduced the death rate.
