Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children and Kawasaki Disease: A Spectrum of Postinfectious Hyperinflammatory Disease.
Review

abstract
Kawasaki disease and multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children are hyperinflammatory conditions that share similar emerging pathophysiology hypotheses, clinical features, treatment strategies, and outcomes. Although both conditions have key differences, growing evidence suggests that both conditions might be closely related on a larger spectrum of postinfectious autoimmune responses.
