Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute febrile multi-system vasculitis of unknown etiology. The diagnosis is based on clinical features. We describe a case of intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG)-resistant KD presenting with persistent fever and massive cervical lymphadenopathy associated with mild respiratory distress. The symptoms resolved after methylprednisolone pulse therapy. High-dose pulse steroid may be an alternative therapeutic option in KD which presents with possible life-threatening complications or failure to respond to high-dose IVIG infusion.
