Abstract

The majority of coronary artery aneurysms in young adults and children are caused by Kawasaki disease. A case of undiagnosed childhood Kawasaki disease presenting as silent myocardial infarction during adolescence, which was successfully treated with coronary artery bypass grafting, is described. The present case is followed by a review of the literature.
