- Coronary artery aneurysms are rare and are often associated with atherosclerosis in adults and Kawasaki disease in children. Thromboembolism and rupture of the aneurysm are common complications associated with this condition. We report a case of coronary aneurysm resection and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in a 36-year-old man with a history of recurrent acute myocardial infarction. There was no coronary aneurysms in first acute myocardial infarction. Histopathological examination of the resected coronary artery aneurysm wall revealed features of vasculitis, although the patient showed no episodes and physical findings of vasculitis. Coronary vasculitis can cause vascular endothelial cell injury and therefore requires careful follow-up.
