Abstract

We report the case of a 12 year old boy with incomplete Kawasaki disease (KD). During the course of his illness he presented with symptoms of acute hepatitis, which delayed the final diagnosis. Although patients with KD may present with elevation of hepatic enzymes and bilirubin, associated acute hepatitis is of rare occurrence in this entity.
