  • Title: "Giant within a giant": a case of typical Kawasaki disease with a giant coronary aneurysm and a large coronary thrombus - a rare case report.
    Author: Rajasekharan S, Kalliath S, Govindan SC.
    Journal: Cardiol Young; 2018 Jan; 28(1):147-149. PubMed ID: 28835313.
    Abstract:
    Kawasaki disease is a febrile vasculitis affecting young children, which may lead to coronary aneurysms. Echocardiography, although sensitive in detecting coronary aneurysms, has a limited role in diagnosing coronary thrombus. Here we report the case of a 10-year-old boy who presented with typical features of Kawasaki disease with giant coronary aneurysms. His follow-up echocardiogram revealed coronary arterial thrombus.
