## TL;DR

A case report highlights the importance of recognizing atypical Kawasaki disease to prevent severe heart complications.

## Contribution

The report emphasizes the need for long-term cardiac and lipid monitoring in atypical cases of Kawasaki disease.

## Key findings

- Atypical Kawasaki disease can lead to severe coronary complications if missed.
- Physicians should consider Kawasaki disease in infants with prolonged fever and elevated inflammation.
- Long-term monitoring is crucial for cardiac and lipid health in such cases.

## Abstract

Atypical Kawasaki disease may be missed, leading to severe coronary complications. Physians should suspect Kawasaki disease in infants with prolonged fever and elevated inflammatory markers, even without the classic features, providing long‐term cardiac and lipid monitoring.
