- Abstract
A case of Kawasaki disease is reported with manifestations of autoimmune vasculitis and predominant affection of coronary arteries. The relevant literature review describes major symptoms of this pathology and risk factors of its atypical forms. It is emphasized that rare occurrence of Kawasaki disease among non-mongoloid subjects should not make the general practitioner les suspicious of this condition.
