A child with severe relapsing Kawasaki disease rescued by IL-1 receptor blockade and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

TL;DR: It is reported, for the first time, the beneficial use of an interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) in relapsing KD, which is associated with the development of coronary artery aneurysms in 15–25% of untreated cases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Five years of Kawasaki disease in the Netherlands: a national surveillance study.

TL;DR: Clinicians should consider the diagnosis of KD in young (male) children with persistent inexplicable fever to start IVIG treatment within 10 days to prevent development of coronary artery aneurysms, according to this prospective study of Kawasaki disease in The Netherlands.
