Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute medium vessel vasculitis seen in children. The most significant long-term complication is related to coronary artery abnormalities. Use of intravenous immunoglobulins, however, has led to significant reduction in incidence of coronary aneurysms. What is more
Kawasaki disease (KD) produces endothelial inflammation, which may lead to dilatation and aneurysms of coronary and peripheral arteries. Previous studies have suggested that these patients can present endothelial dysfunction that can predispose to coronary vascular events late after KD. The purpose
BACKGROUND
Although coronary atherosclerosis most commonly produces clinical effects as a result of stenosis, aneurysmal disease also occurs. We have found an increased prevalence of ectasia and aneurysmal disease in familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) suggesting a link between plasma lipoproteins
