Abstract:
:The authors report 22 patients of Kawasaki disease, diagnosed and treated over a period of 3 years at a tertiary care centre in New Delhi. Ten cases fullfiled the criteria of a "classical" case while 12 cases were "incomplete" cases. Echocardiography was performed in all cases and coronary artery involvement was found in 8 (36%) cases. All cases received high dose Intravenous Immunoglobulins (IVIG) as standard therapy. In two cases, a repeat dose of IVIG was required for defervescence to occur. All cases recovered after therapy. Those with coronary artery involvement were planned for a 2 years follow up from the time of diagnosis.
