Echocardiographic findings in a fatal case of Kawasaki's disease
Abstract
Kawasaki's disease or mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome is being diagnosed with increasing freqency in this country. Although death is a rare complication coronary arteritis with associated myocardial changes is common. Echocardiography is proposed as a non-invasive study that may aid in the early detection of cardiac involvement.
