Abstract
Kawasaki disease (KD) is a medium vessel systemic vasculitis that predominantly occurs in children below five years of age. It is an acute febrile condition in which coronary artery aneurysms and myocarditis are the most common cardiovascular complications. It is most often characterized by hypercytoki-nemia. The etiopathogenesis of KD is not fully understood. The present review synthesizes the recent advances in the pathophysiology and treatment options of KD. According to different studies, the genetic, infections and autoimmunity factors play a major role in pathogenesis. Several susceptibility genes (e.g. caspase 3) and cytokines (e.g. IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IFN-γ and TNF-α) have been identified in KD. Patients with high cytokine levels are predisposed to KD shock syndrome. The importance of respiratory viruses in the pathogenesis of the disease is unclear. Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) may induce in children and adults an abnormal systemic inflammatory response. This syndrome shares characteristics with KD. It has been called by many terms like MIS-C (Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children), PIMS-TS (pediatric inflammatory multisystem syndrome temporally associated with SARS-CoV-2), hyperinflammatory shock syndrome, cytokine storm (cytokine release syndrome) or simply, Kawasaki-like syndrome. The cytokine’s role in the development of KD or Kawasaki-like syndrome being triggered by COVID-19 is controversial. The presences of the antiendothelial cell autoantibodies (AECAs) together with the newly developed hypothesis of immunothrombosis are considered potential pathogenic mechanisms for KD. In consequence, the diagnosis and treatment of KD and Kawasaki-like syndrome, one of the most common causes of acquired heart disease in developed countries, are challenging without a clearly defined protocol.

Abstract
Kawasaki disease is an acute systemic disease characterized by the predominant lesions of middle and small arteries, alongside destructive and proliferative vasculitis development. The aetiology is currently being discussed. Infectious factors are mostly preferred, in addition, autoimmune mechanisms and genetic heredity are considered. The diagnosis of Kawasaki disease is established by clinical signs; laboratory changes are usually taken into account as are ancillary criteria. The article discusses the clinical case of Kawasaki disease in an 8-year-old boy. Given the variety and inconsistency of the clinical symptoms (the child had four of the five mandatory criteria together with prolonged fever), there was a late diagnosis, namely on day 10 of the disease. Due to the high risk of cardiovascular complications in the differential diagnosis of children with fever lasting more than 3 days should be considered Kawasaki disease, followed by mandatory heart echocardiography during the first 10 days of the disease, especially if the fever is accompanied by the increase of acute phase reactants. When treating children with chronic fever without a specific source, the doctor should be wary of Kawasaki disease, as it can clinically simulate acute respiratory viral disease, the onset of diffuse connective tissue disease, and infectious endocarditis, and can have common features and require differential diagnostics with coronavirus associated multisystem inflammatory syndrome.
