Brief Summary
Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute self-limited vasculitis of infancy and early childhood. Most patients recover without sequelae although the inflammatory process causes permanent damage to the coronary arteries in 20-25% of untreated children. An infectious aetiology is suspected, but the causative agent has not been identified. The investigators aim to identify the genes underlying both susceptibility to Kawasaki disease, and the development of coronary artery aneurysms.

Eligibility Criteria
Children under the care of consultant in hospital for Kawasaki disease, families who are members of the UK Kawasaki Support Group
You may qualify if:
- Affected children will be recruited if the treating clinician has made a diagnosis of possible Kawasaki disease (even if they do not fulfil the criteria below for Kawasaki disease).
- The current standard diagnostic criteria for KD (Circulation 2001 103 335-336 doi: 10.1161/01.CIR 103.2.335) are:
- The presence of fever for at least five days plus four of the following criteria:
- Changes in the peripheral extremities Acute: erythema and oedema of hands and feet Convalescent: membranous desquamation of fingertips
- Polymorphous exanthema
- Bilateral painless bulbar conjunctival injection without exudate
- Changes in lips and oral cavity: erythema and cracking of lips, strawberry tongue, diffuse injection of oral and pharyngeal mucosae
- Cervical lymphadenopathy (\>1.5cm diameter), usually unilateral Patients meeting not all of these criteria may meet the criteria for atypical Kawasaki disease, ie. if they have fever and two or three of the above criteria and elevation of CRP or echocardiographic evidence of coronary artery dilatation.
- Parents of affected child must be biological parents.
You may not qualify if:
- children who do not have a diagnosis of possible Kawasaki disease
