  • Title: Cardiac death in mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome.
    Author: Kegel SM, Dorsey TJ, Rowen M, Taylor WF.
    Journal: Am J Cardiol; 1977 Aug; 40(2):282-6. PubMed ID: 879036.
    Abstract:
    A 12 year old boy had 4 symptom-free years after hospitalization for acute febrile mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome before he died suddenly from extensive myocardial infarction. Current evidence suggests that many patients with this syndrome have coronary artery disease and that those with significant cardiac findings should be studied with coronary angiography. Serial studies are recommended because of the danger of sudden death.
