Abstract:
Kawasaki disease (KD) without proper treatment,the incidence of coronary artery lesions is up to 25%.Some of them develope of coronary artery aneurysms (CAA),obstructive coronary artery disease(stenosis,occlusion or thrombosis).KD with CAA in children need long term follow-up.Electrocardiogram(ECG) and two-dimensional echocardiography(2DE) are still the basic means of checking for follow-up.KD with CAA who should be preferred magnetic resonance imaging examination.Dobutamine stress echocardiography or coronary angiography should be done with suggestive of myocardial ischemia in ECG or 2DE.
