Kawasaki Disease in North-Eastern Part of India

Dhrubajyoti Sharma*

Kawasaki Disease (KD) is a medium vessel vasculitis and especially involves coronary arteries. The disorder occurs most commonly in children less than 5 years. However, it can affect any age up to the adulthood. If KD is not treated on time, it will lead to coronary artery aneurysm in 25% of patients and this is one of the risk factors for premature cardiovascular death. Intravenous immunoglobulin is the drug of choice in the treatment of KD, and it should be administered within 10 days of onset of symptoms. Timely treatment reduces the chance of the development of CAA to 3%-5%. Therefore, the major concern should be the early diagnosis and timely management of KD. Recently, we have reported a case series from North-Eastern part of India describing our experience in patients with KD in this part of the country.
