A CASE ON KAWASAKI SYNDOME IT’S DIAGNOSIS AND MANAGEMENT
AbstractKawasaki Syndrome (KS) can be a widespread vasculitis affecting many systems, and some of the other recognized complications are discussed, including those affecting the skin, nervous system, gastrointestinal tract, musculo-skeletal system, kidneys, lungs, eyes and haematological effects. There is no specific diagnostic test or pathognomonic clinical features; those previously mentioned clinical criteria have been established to assist physicians in diagnosing Kawasaki disease (KD). We are reporting a case of 1 year 3 months child who has successfully relieved by the IgG and Aspirin therapy. A greater awareness on the part of paediatricians is now contributing to increased recognition of this entity even in India. We suggest that physicians should be cognizant of the fact that they must individualize every patient’s management to the best of their knowledge and judgment, rather than merely going by the guidelines
