Core Tip	Pyuria is a common feature of patients with Kawasaki disease (KD), occurring in 30%-80% of patients. KD patients with pyuria exhibit more severe inflammatory reactions and may have sub-clinical renal injuries. Pyuria in KD originates from the urethra, the kidney as a result of mild and sub-clinical renal injuries, and/or the bladder due to cystitis. Pyuria is not always sterile in KD, but can result from a urinary tract infection (UTI). Because some KD patients with UTIs have urinary tract abnormalities, a complete UTI workup including renal ultrasound, voiding cystourethrogram and/or dimercaptosuccinic acid renal scan is recommended in KD patients with UTIs.
