Abstract
Atypical presentations of Kawasaki's disease have been described in the form of intestinal pseudo-obstruction, tonsillitis, hemorrhagic serous effusions, thrombocytopenia, and non-fulfillment of all criteria for diagnosis of Kawasaki's disease. However, presentation of Kawasaki's disease with shock and need for ionotropic support have been rarely described. We present a 4-year-old girl with Kawasaki's disease who presented with anasarca, oliguria, shock, and presence of dilated coronary arteries within 5 days of fever and responded to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and inotropic support.
