Abstract

Follow-up echocardiography showed two coronary-pulmonary artery fistulae and a coronary artery aneurysm in a 12-year-old boy who had been diagnosed with Kawasaki disease without persistent coronary artery lesion at the acute phase when he was 6-months-old. Left coronary arteriogram confirmed the fistulae and the 4.3 × 6.3 mm aneurysm. Results show that the fistula is associated with Kawasaki disease.
