The authors presents 3 cases of Kawasaki disease where, in all cases, a perineal rash or rash located in the diaper area, was an initial or predominant sign. We highlight the interest of this discovery for the early and diagnostic of this disease, in both its classics and incomplete forms, and with this achieve efficiency in the preventive treatment of the cardiovascular complications.
