초록

급성 음낭증은 갑작스런 음낭의 부종과 통증을 주소로 하는 음낭의 병적 상태를 말하는 것으로 가와사키의 드문 합병증으로 알려져 있다. 저자들은 급성 음낭증을 동반한 가와사키병으로 진단된 2개월 남자 환아를 경험하였으며, 환아는 정맥 면역글로불린 및 아스피린 투여 후 발열과 가와사키병의 임상 증상들이 호전되었고 2달째에 고환 초음파검사에서 급성 음낭증의 호전을 확인하고 심장 초음파 검사에서 관상동맥 합병증이 보이지 않아 치료를 종료하였다.

Kawasaki disease (KD) is a systemic vasculitis that occurs predominantly in infants and young children. The etiology of KD is unknown and coronary heart disease is a major complication of KD. Acute scrotum is a rare complication of acute KD, and not as well recognized as other manifestations of the disease. We report a 2-month-old boy with acute scrotum in the acute phase of KD. He was treated with intravenous immunoglobulin (total 2 g/kg) and aspirin (50 mg/kg/day). The treatment was effective in resolving his fever and other clinical symptoms, but 2 days after starting treatment he experienced scrotal swelling. Scrotal ultrasound and transillumination were used in the diagnosis of acute scrotum. After 2 months, a follow-up testicular ultrasound revealed a remission of the acute scrotum. Subsequently, he has been followed up for KD.
