Abstract

Based on the literature sources, modern ideas about Kawasaki syndrome, its diagnostic criteria and the possible trigger role of M. pneumoniae are given. The author describes his own observation of Kawasaki syndrome, probably associated with mycoplasma infection, in a boy of 4 years and 8 months. A special feature of the case was also the presence of a combined mycoplasma-enterovirus infection, which explained the wave-like course of the disease, as well as the delayed development of the respiratory syndrome.
