ABSTRACT
Four subjects, three males and one female, suffering from Kawasaki disease, were studied clinically, immunologically and instrumentally since from the early stages of the disease through 6-10 months. According to data reported in the literature, all the patients showed marked immunological disorders. Microaneurysms of coronary vessels were detected by echocardiography in one of the patients; such finding, constantly present through the follow-up, did not have any clinical and/or electrocardiographic correlate. Moreover, it is worth recording the rapid remission in all subjects of the principal clinical and humoral systems following the treatment with ASA + high dosage Ig given via intravenous.
