We present a 35-year-old man with history of Kawasaki disease who referred with myocardial infarction, and angiography, revealing aneurysm of left main and left anterior descending coronary arteries. The patient underwent percutaneous coronary intervention and thrombectomy and was discharged after 6 d. Coronary artery sequels of Kawasaki disease should be considered as one of the underlying causes of acute myocardial infarction in young adults.

This case report underscores that crystal methamphetamine abuse is an important cause of multivessel coronary thrombosis and raises doubts about the therapeutic options. The patient was a 34-year-old smoker and crystal methamphetamine abuser with no significant medical history, who presented with retrosternal chest pain associated with cold sweats. Twelve-lead electrocardiogram revealed diffuse ST-segment elevation in I, II, AVL, AVF, and V 2-6 leads. He underwent urgent coronary angiography and it showed Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) grade 3 flow in coronary arteries and presence of a thrombus in the left anterior descending artery (LAD) and the right coronary artery (RCA). The patient underwent medical therapy with antiplatelet agents and anticoagulants. Repeat coronary angiography after three months of dual therapy with warfarin and aspirin did not show any thrombus or any significant lesion in the RCA and the LAD having TIMI grade 3 flow.
