Distal coronary artery abnormalities in Kawasaki disease: experience on CT coronary angiography in 176 children.
Rheumatology (Oxford, England)(2023)
Abstract
CAAs can, at times, occur in distal segments in isolation and also in association with, or extension of, proximal CAAs. CTCA demonstrates CAAs in distal segments of coronary arteries, including branches, in a significant number of children with KD-these cannot be detected on TTE. CTCA may therefore be considered as a complimentary imaging modality in children with KD who have CAAs on TTE.
