Abstract

Is Kawasaki Disease a Side Effect of Vaccination as Well?

Ibrahim Ece, Sinan Akbayram, Kaan Demiroren and Abdurrahman Uner

Different subtypes of vasculitis have been reported after vaccination in adults. However, only one case of Kawasaki disease in an infant after hepatitis B vaccination has been described. We report a case of Kawasaki disease in a 2 month-old infant who developed the Kawasaki disease 1 day after receiving his first dose of diphtheria tetanus-acellular pertussis, Haemophilus b and pneumococcal conjugate vaccine.
