Coronary changes and cardiac events in children diagnosed of Kawasaki disease without coronary aneurysm on initial echocardiography

ew CAA in patients with KD who had no previous CAA in their initial echocardiography are rare. In addition, patients who had normal echocardiographic follow up at two weeks or eight weeks mostly continued to be normal at one year. The optimal timing of the echocardiographic follow up should be at two to eight weeks in patients without initial CAA, who still have a coronary artery Z score less than 2 at the second echocardiography.
