ABSTRACT
Abstract Kawasaki disease was first reported in 1967, and it was classified as an autoimmune vasculitis of the small and medium arteries. It is a self-limiting condition that occurs mostly in childhood, but it may involve complications — such as coronary artery aneurysms, myocardial ischemia, and arrhythmias — with significant morbidity and mortality that occur later in life. In this article, we present the association of an ascending aortic aneurysm with bicuspid aortic disease in addition to coronary aneurysm in a 55-year-old patient diagnosed with Kawasaki disease.
