Abstract

We report the case of an adult male patient with severe coronary artery lesions secondary to Kawasaki disease (KD) diagnosed by coronary angiography (CAG). These severe lesions include serious coronary stenosis and dilation with aneurysms. The long-term complications related to the persistence of these lesions have the strongest association with myocardial infarction (MI) and sudden cardiac death (SCD). CAG is one of the most important methods for the accurate diagnosis of coronary artery anomalies of KD.
