Abstract
- The article presents a case study of eight pediatric cases initially diagnosed with Kawasaki disease (KD) but later confirmed to have underlying autoinflammatory diseases (AIDs). It is reported that the patients exhibited recurrent febrile episodes, posing a diagnostic challenge. It further underscores the importance of considering AIDs in fevers of unknown origin.
