    Snippet: Although the relationship between virus and KD was not precisely identified, clinical presentation of adenovirus still mimics KD [9] [10] [11] [12] . It remains to be determined whether this virus causes KD with triggering pathophysiology, leading to similar clinical features as adenoviral infection. This study has several important clinical im plications. The early differential diagnosis of KD from adenoviral infection was important to prevent i.....
    Document: Although the relationship between virus and KD was not precisely identified, clinical presentation of adenovirus still mimics KD [9] [10] [11] [12] . It remains to be determined whether this virus causes KD with triggering pathophysiology, leading to similar clinical features as adenoviral infection. This study has several important clinical im plications. The early differential diagnosis of KD from adenoviral infection was important to prevent inadvertent coronary artery complications. The suggested clinical features and inflammatory markers could be useful in differentiating KD from isolated adeno viral infection in the early period of disease. In addition, other inflammatory markers such as BNP and procalcitonin should be assessed, because no specific inflammatory biomarker was establish ed during the acute phase.
