Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty for Coronary Arterial Stenosis in a 10-Year-Old Boy with Kawasaki Disease and a Brief Review

Pediatric Cardiology volume 29, pages 422–426 (2008)Cite this article

Abstract

A 10-year-old boy developed coronary artery stenosis 9 years after suffering Kawasaki disease with coronary artery aneurysms at the age of 7 months old. Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty was performed successfully to dilate the coronary arteries in order to prevent obstruction of the coronary arteries.
