[et al.] - Kawasaki Disease and Human Bocavirus – potential association?. "Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection". ISSN 1684-1182. 44:3 (2011) 235-237 | Serial title, monograph or event: | Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection | Volume: | 44 | Issue: | 3 | Abstract: | Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute febrile multisystem vasculitic syndrome of unknown etiology, occurring mostly in infants and children younger than 5 years of age. We present a 13-month-old male with KD from whom was found human bocavirus DNA in nasopharyngeal secretions. Human bocavirus DNA in a patient with KD raised question about the coincidental or possible etiological association. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/21133 | ISSN: | 1684-1182 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.jmii.2011.01.016 | Rights: | openAccess |
