Serotypic heterogeneity in isolates of human genital T-mycoplasmas.

Serological typing of human genital T-mycoplasmas by a complement-dependent mycoplasmacidal test showed that some recent isolates had different serotypic behavior before and after purification, and that the widely distributed prototype strain T960 was composed of at least two different serotypes. These results indicate that T-mycoplasma isolates from human genital tracts are not serologically homogeneous.

Kawasaki disease complicated by peripheral gangrene.

An 8.5-month-old male infant with Kawasaki disease (KD) received high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy on the fifth day after fever onset. However, multiple peripheral limb ischemias occurred 2 days later. Accordingly, heparin followed by dipyridamole was administered. Aside from a small amputation at the tip of the right middle finger, all other digital ischemias resolved. This presentation demonstrates that early recognition and management of peripheral gangrene in KD may keep its sequela to a minimum.
