DIAZ, Rienzi A et al. Severe aneurisma I coronary artery disease probably caused by Kawasaki disease. Report of one case. Rev. méd. Chile [online]. 2007, vol.135, n.9, pp.1182-1185. ISSN 0034-9887.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0034-98872007000900014.

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
