Abstract
Kawasaki disease, traditionally classified as medium vessel vasculitis, is known for the preferential involvement of coronary arteries. Infrequently, large systemic arteries might be involved and may affect the prognosis. Here, we present an infant with Kawasaki disease who had extensive involvement of large vessels such as the abdominal aorta and medium vessels of the extremities, along with giant coronary artery aneurysms.
