Neisseria meningitidis serogroup A septicemia and the development of Kawasaki disease in a 10-month-old male infant are described. The patient also experienced a number of primary/septic manifestations as consequences of the direct infectious assault and secondary/hypersensitivity immune-mediated complications. The present observation indicates an etiological relationship between invasive meningococcal infection group A and Kawasaki disease, an association in favor of superantigen-induced theory for the latter occurrence. © 2009 by Lippincott Williams & Wilkins.
