Mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome: three cases observed in Hungary.
Three patients are reported whose symptoms were very similar to those described in mucocutaneous lymph nodes syndrome, a disease prevalent in Japan. In one case the disease was complicated by otomastoiditis which prolonged the course and reactivated the symptoms. In the other two cases recovery was uneventful. No epidemiological relation could be demonstrated among the cases. Prednisolone was administered to two patients with immediate antifebrile effect.
