Abstract

Facial palsy is an unusual complication associated with Kawasaki disease, with only a few published case reports. We report two patients with typical Kawasaki disease and facial palsy. Both had coronary artery aneurysms and were treated with intravenous immunoglobulin. The facial palsy resolved completely over the next several months in both patients. Coronary artery aneurysms resolved completely in one patient, and the other has not regressed to normal till now. The incidence of coronary artery aneurysm appears to be higher in the handful of reported cases of Kawasaki disease with facial palsy.
川崎病并发面瘫2例报告。
面瘫是一种罕见的并发症与川崎病,只有少数发表的病例报告。我们报告2例典型川崎病伴面瘫患者。两人都有冠状动脉瘤,并接受静脉注射免疫球蛋白治疗。在接下来的几个月里,两名患者的面瘫完全消失了。1例患者冠状动脉瘤完全消退,另1例至今未恢复正常。在少数报道的川崎病伴面瘫病例中,冠状动脉动脉瘤的发生率似乎更高。
