Abstract
The major complication of Kawasaki disease is coronary artery dilatation and aneurysm. It occurs in approximately 15-25 of untreated children with Kawasaki Disease. Early diagnosis and treatment with Intravenous immune globulin (IVIG) and aspirin (ASA) can reduce the incidence of coronary artery abnormality to 2-5. We report one case of Atypical Kawasaki Disease with Multiple giant coronary artery aneurysms despite early adequate treatment with IVIG and ASA. © 2014 Tehran University of Medical Sciences.
