title: Kawasaki disease in association with urinary tract infection.
abstract: We report a 2-month-old infant with E. coli urinary tract infection, who did not respond to antibiotic therapy.  She later developed clinical features fulfilling criteria of Kawasaki disease (KD), and was treated with intravenous immunolglobulin and aspirin.  KD should be considered in the differential diagnosis in patients who present with infection and do not respond to antibiotic therapy.
