Abstract:
We report a 38-year-old man with previous Kawasaki disease who presented with exertional dyspnoea and was found to have multivessel coronary aneurysm and stenoses on coronary angiography. Coronary artery bypass surgery was subsequently performed. This case highlights the angiographic and intravascular ultrasonographic imaging features of this relatively uncommon condition presenting to an adult general cardiology service in Singapore.
