Utility of post mortem MRI in definition of thrombus in aneurismatic coronary arteries due to incomplete Kawasaki Disease in infants
چکیده انگلیسی
We report a case of Incomplete Kawasaki Disease (IKD) causing unexpected death in infants. A seven-month-old male baby, apparently well nourished and without fever or exanthema that was unexpectedly found agonal in his bed by his parents. He died in an emergency room a few hours later in spite of aggressive resuscitation efforts. Postmortem Magnetic Resonance Images were obtained during the autopsy, with evidence of an occlusive thrombus in left and right coronary artery aneurysms. Laboratory findings were consistent with IKD. The crucial role of postmortem imaging is discussed here in order to improve diagnosis tools for preventable events.
