    Document: Kawasaki disease (KD) or mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome is a childhood disorder that was first reported by Tomisaku Kawasaki in 1967. 1 The characteristic signs are conjunctival congestion, skin rash, skin desquamation of the peripheral limbs, erythema of the oral cavity, lips, and palms, and cervical lymphadenopathy. 1 KD most commonly develops in infants. Approximately 85% of the patients with KD are under 5 years of age. 2, 3 The occurrence of KD is rare in adolescents and adults. 4 The specific cause of KD is still unclear, but some reports suggest that it is triggered by bacterial or viral infections. [5] [6] [7] Herein, we describe a rare case of adult-onset KD which revealed to be concurrently infected by Coxsackievirus A4.
