| Abstract |
|
Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty(PTCA) is rarely performed on patients with coronary arterial stenosis that resulted from Kawasaki disease. We experienced a 3 year 10-month- old male with a history of Kawasaki disease who developed a few numbers of fusiform aneurysm on the right and left coronary artery. We examined and followed up the patient for 21 months using eletrocardiography, echocardiography, scintigraphy, and coronary angiography. The angiography was performed at 4 months initially and repeated 21 months after the onset because of a perfusion defect at scintigraphy. A significant stenotic lesion was found on the right coronary artery. Twenty-one months after the onset, the stenotic lesion was successfully dilated after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty and luminal patency was maintained for over 1 year. We report this case and a review of literatures. |
