Abstract
A 14-year-old male patient with a history of atypical Kawasaki disease at age 2 presents with triple vessel giant coronary aneurysms. Over the last several years, he began experiencing angina and dyspnea on exertion, which was a result of fully occluded right coronary and left circumflex arteries and 90% stenosis in the left anterior descending artery. He underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass using the left and right internal mammary arteries. At 18-month follow-up, there is no evidence of ischemia. Off-pump bypass is a feasible option for surgical management of the stenotic and occlusive complications of Kawasaki disease.Entities:
