ABSTRACT
Kawasaki disease is a nonspecific systemic vasculitis of unknown etiology which mainly involves small and medium arteries.The most serious complication is coronary artery lesions, which can lead to serious cardiovascular events.Because of the unknown etiology and pathogenesis, the acute pathological changes and long-term evolution of coronary artery lesions are particularly important for clinical diagnosis, treatment and long-term management.This article reviews the research progress of coronary artery pathology in Kawasaki disease and the long-term prognosis of coronary artery lesions.
