Clinical characteristics of cervical lymphadenopathy in Kawasaki disease and the generation of related cervical complications: a retrospective cohort study
IVIG resistance and KDSS are more prevalent among patients with cervical lymph node enlargement in Kawasaki disease compared to those without lymph node involvement. When cervical B-ultrasonography reveals bilateral multiple lymph nodes in Level II regions, without liquefaction or significant abscess formation, clinicians should be vigilant for the possibility of Kawasaki disease.
