A. Acute febrile phase
B. Subacute phase
C. Convalescent phase
D. Phase of complications
E. All of the above - ANSWER - 1 B.
Kawasaki disease presents with characteristically high, unremitting fever and 4 out of the 5
principal features:
Bilateral nonexudative bulbar conjunctival injection with limbal sparing;
Erythema of the oral and pharyngeal mucosa with strawberry tongue and dry, cracked lips;
Edema and erythema of the hands and feet;
Rash of various forms (scarlatiniform, maculopapular, erythema multiforme);
Nonsuppurative cervical lymphadenopathy (usually unilateral, with node size >1.5cm).
Acute febrile phase - fever and the acute signs of illness and usually lasts 1-2wks
Subacute febrile phase - desquamation, thrombocytosis, coronary aneurysms and highest
risk of sudden death usually lasts 2 wks
Convalescent phase - All clinical signs have disappeared until ESR normalizes typically 6-
8wks after onset on illness

A four year old presents with low-grade fever, intermittent crampy abdominal pain with
emesis and swollen knees of 3 days duration. A purpuric rash distributed below the knees of

A. Meningococcemia
B. Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura
C. Henoch-Scholein purpura
D. SLE E. Juvenile Rheumatoid arthritis - ANSWER - 2 C.
HSP is a common vasculitis among children and presents with the classic findings of
abdominal pain with or without rectal bleeding, vasculitis rash, arthritis and nephritis. The
platelet count is normal. Gastrointestinal involvement may progress to intussusception.

and also notes rashes that come and go in different parts of her body but not on the face. On
physical examination, salmon colored patches were noted on the trunk and extremities.
Palpation revealed splenomegaly. What is the diagnosis?
A. Henoch Schoenlein Purpura
B. Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
C. Juvenile Rheumatoid arthritis
D. Juvenile Dermatomyositis
E. Dengue fever - ANSWER - 3 C.
Don't forget to study rheumatic diseases of childhood even if it's not your favorite topic.
Familiarize yourself with the relatively common ones like JRA, SLE and dermatomyositis,
HSP and scleroderma. Pay attention to the characteristics of the rash and other features.
(Don't fall for the trap of rash + arthritis = SLE.. It's not always SLE!)
JRA - Salmon colored patch, evanescent, spares the face
SLE - Malar rash, photosensitive
Dermatomyositis - heliotrope (periorbital) rash, gottron papules (rash on the knuckles)
HSP - purpura in dependent portions
For JRA, know the differences between subtypes (oligoarticular vs polyarticular vs systemic
onset)
This case in particular is a case of systemic onset Juvenile Rheumatoid arthritis (also called
Still's Disease)

A 4 yr old boy presents with his third episode of painful cervical lymphadenitis. Each was
treated with incision and drainage and grew S. aureus. He also experiences recurrent skin
infections. A year ago, he was hospitalized for osteomyelitis. The most important laboratory
test is:
A. PCR for ADA deficiency
B. Nitroblue tetrazolium test
C. MAC-I assay
D. Neutrophil count
E. Genetic chromosomal analysis - ANSWER - 4 B. This is a case of chronic granulomatous
disease (CGD) wherein patients are susceptible to catalase positive organisms like S. aureus.
The nitroblue tetrazolium tests the neutrophils ability to generate superoxide anion and thus
kill ingested bacteria.
