“…Additionally, associations between parainfluenza and Kawasaki disease 46,47 and mucocutaneous lymph-node syndrome have also been reported. In these diseases viral replication within the endothelium may cause vessel injury, which is important in the pathogenesis of vasculitis 48,49 .…”

“…Weiss et al analyzed 3132 hospitalizations for HSP using a database of admission records from 40 children’s hospitals in the United States and reported that hospitalizations for HSP increased when hospitalizations for group A β-hemolytic streptococcus, S. aureus, and HPIV increased [ 33 ]. HPIV can also contribute to other forms of vasculitis, such as Kawasaki disease [ 34 , 35 ].…”

“…In a nationwide survey to identify KD's incidence and viral etiology in patients hospitalized in a 3‐year study period, HPIV was detected in 382 (2.7%) cases 102 . Seroconversion to HPIV‐2 and viral isolation were demonstrated in a patient with KD with a possible causal relationship 103 . Overall, these data demonstrate that the presence of or concurrent HPIV infection in KD patients is not an unusual event, and physicians should not dismiss the diagnosis of KD based on the presence of respiratory symptoms.…”
