Abstract

We describe 10 patients who developed a psoriatic skin eruption during either the acute or convalescent phase of Kawasaki disease. The skin eruption was pustular in 3 patients, but more typical psoriasiform skin lesions were seen in the remaining 7 patients. No patient has yet developed chronic psoriasis.
