Journal: Rev Med Chil; 2007 Sep; 135(9):1182-5. PubMed ID: 18064375. Abstract: We report a 16 year old male with a history of angina on exertion. A treadmill exercise test was positive for ischemia in concordance with a Thallium-201 scintigraphy showing a septal and infero-posterior reversible myocardial perfusión defect. Coronary angiography disclosed severe aneurysmal coronary artery disease. Bilateral internal mammary coronary artery bypass grafting was successfully performed. Kawasaki disease is the most likely etiology, although not confirmed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
