Abstract

The high spatial resolution of multislice computed tomography (MSCT) permits direct visualization of the coronary artery system. In this report, we describe coronary artery abnormalities in a young adult with Kawasaki disease. MSCT detected a giant coronary artery aneurysm, coronary artery stenosis in the first diagonal artery, and a multi-layered structure in the right coronary artery and the left circumflex artery. These findings corresponded well to those obtained by coronary angiography. MSCT has the potential to be the standard diagnostic tool for the follow-up evaluation of coronary artery disease in adolescents and young adults with Kawasaki disease.
