Abstract
Choroba Kawasaki (KD) to forma ostrego zapalenia naczyń z udziałem małych i średnich tętnic. Martwica kończyn jest bardzo rzadkim i potencjalnie ciężkim powikłaniem KD. Poniżej prezentujemy przypadek KD z obwodową gangreną i autoamputacją, który jest pierwszym takim przypadkiem zgłoszonym w Indii i 14-tym przypadkiem w literaturze medycznej. U rocznego dziecka z KD i zgorzelą obwodową rozpoczęto leczenie aspiryną. Obserwowano zgorzel palców z amputacją końcówki prawego palca wskazującego.
