Background: Anomalous origin of coronary arteries (AOCA) is a rare congenital disease. Althoughit may have a benign course, it has been identified as a frequent cause of sports-related suddendeath. Unfortunately, in vivo detection ofAOCA is not easy, as individuals with this anomaly oftenare asymptomatic and show no signs of myocardial ischemia. Presently, transthoracic two-dimensional echocardiography (TTE) is the only noninvasive, widely available tool to visualize theostia and first tracts of coronary arteries.Objective: To assess the efficacy of TTE in the screening of AOCA in a large athletic population.Study design: In a prospective study, we assessed the ostia and first tracts of coronary arteries in3,650 subjects (mean age, 30±12 years) practicing different sports at various competitive levels.Subjects underwent a TTE examination in our laboratory for scientific or diagnostic purposes.Results: Technically satisfactory echocardiograms were obtained in 3,504 subjects (96%); a clearvisualization of the ostia and first tracts of both coronary arteries was obtained in 3,150 cases

(90%). Three asymptomatic athletes (0.09%) were suspected to have an AOCA; two with a rightcoronary artery origin from the left sinus, and one with a left coronary artery origin from theright sinus. Diagnosis was confirmed by coronary angiography.Conclusions: Our study indicated that AOCA is rare in asymptomatic athletes. Systematic andaccurate exploration of coronary anatomy in athletes referred for a diagnostic TTE examinationmay be useful in identifying those with AOCA. (CHEST 1998; 114:89-93)

Major Coronary ArteryAnomalies in a Pediatric Population:Incidence and Clinical ImportanceJulie A. Davis, MD, Frank Cecchin, MD, FACC, Thomas K. Jones, MD, FACC,Michael A. Portman, MD, FACCSeattle, Washington

OBJECTIVES We sought to prospectively determine the incidence and clinical significance of majorcoronary artery anomalies in asymptomatic children using transthoracic two-dimensionalechocardiography.

BACKGROUND Anomalous origins of the left main coronary artery (ALMCA) from the right sinus ofValsalva or anomalous origins the right coronary artery (ARCA) from the left sinus are rarelydiagnosed in children and can cause sudden death, especially in young athletes. Because mostpatients are asymptomatic, the diagnosis is often made post mortem. No study to date hasprospectively identified anomalous coronary arteries in asymptomatic children in the generalpopulation.

METHODS After serendipitously identifying an index case with ALMCA, we examined proximalcoronary artery anatomy in children with otherwise anatomically normal hearts who werereferred for echocardiography. In those diagnosed with ALMCA or ARCA, we performedfurther tests.

RESULTS Within a three-year period, echocardiograms were obtained in 2,388 children and adoles-cents. Four children (0.17%) were identified with anomalous origin of their coronary arteries,and angiograms, exercise perfusion studies and/or stress tests were then performed. OneARCA patient had decreased perfusion in the right coronary artery (RCA) perfusion area andshowed ventricular ectopy on electrocardiogram (ECG) at rest that diminished but did notresolve with exercise. A second patient with ALMCA had atrial tachycardia immediately afterexercise, with inferior and lateral ischemic changes on ECG and frequent junctional and/orventricular premature complexes both at rest and recovery.

CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that although anomalous origins of coronary arteries are rare inasymptomatic children, the prevalence is greater than that found in other prospective studies.Ischemia can occur with both ALMCA and ARCA even though patients remain asymp-tomatic. Because of the high risk of sudden cardiac death, aggressive surgical managementand close follow-up are necessary. (J Am Coll Cardiol 2001;37:593–7) © 2001 by theAmerican College of Cardiology

Anomalous origins of the left main coronary artery(ALMCA) from the right sinus of Valsalva or anomalousorigins the right coronary artery (ARCA) from the left sinusof Valsalva are rare congenital anomalies with a combinedincidence ranging from 0.17% in autopsy studies to 1.2% inpatients angiographically evaluated (1,2). Sudden deathoccurs with both anomalies, most notably in young athleticindividuals (3–5). The diagnosis is often first made postmortem because most of these patients are asymptomatic

(6), with cardiovascular symptoms (e.g., chest pain, exer-tional dyspnea, syncope or dizziness) occurring in only 18%to 30% of patients (7,8). These anomalies can be detected by

transthoracic two-dimensional echocardiography (TTE),which offers a safe, noninvasive way of examining theproximal coronary artery anatomy (9).

Indeed, few studies to date have prospectively identifiedALMCA or ARCA in children and adolescents (9–12).Those that have done so identified patients either becausethey were symptomatic (9,10) or because they were athletesrequired to undergo preparticipation echocardiographicscreening (11,12). No studies have identified anomalouscoronary arteries in asymptomatic children and adolescentsin the general population. Therefore, our study was de-signed to prospectively determine the incidence and clinicalsignificance of major coronary artery anomalies in otherwiseasymptomatic children and adolescents by using TTE.

METHODS

Patients. An index case with ALMCA was serendipitouslyidentified and reported at our institution using TTE (13).Subsequently, between February 1997 and December 1999,

Kawasaki disease : Key points 1

1. Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute, self-limited febrile illness of unknown cause that predominantly affects children <5 years of age.

2. KD is now the most common cause of acquired heart disease in children in developed countries.

3. In the absence of pathognomonic tests, the diagnosis continues to rest on the identification of principal clinical findings and the exclusion of other clinically similar entities with known causes.

Kawasaki disease : Key points 21. Timely initiation of treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin

(IVIG) has reduced the incidence of coronary artery aneurysms defined from absolute luminal dimensions from 25% to ≈4%. Ongoing studies with additional therapies have not substantially reduced this residual risk.

2. The long-term prognosis is determined by the initial and current level of coronary artery involvement. Certain subsets of patients are at risk for myocardial ischemia from coronary artery thrombosis and stenoses.

3. Medical management of such patients hinges on judicious use of thromboprophylaxis and vigilance to identify evolving stenoses. Invasive revascularization procedures might be required for selected patients.

Clinical criteria for the diagnosis of Kawasaki disease

Classic KD is diagnosed in the presence of fever for at least 5 days (the day of fever onset is taken to be the first day of fever) together with at least 4 of the 5 following principal clinical features:

1. Erythema and cracking of lips, strawberry tongue, and/or erythema of oral and pharyngeal mucosa 2. Bilateral bulbar conjunctival injection without exudate 3. Rash: maculopapular, diffuse erythroderma, or erythema multiforme-like 4. Erythema and edema of the hands and feet in acute phase and/or periungual desquamation in subacute phase 5. Cervical lymphadenopathy (≥1.5 cm diameter), usually unilateral

Recommendations for Cardiovascular Assessment for Diagnosis and Monitoring During the Acute Illness

1. Echocardiography should be performed when the diagnosis of KD is considered, but unavailability or technical limitations should not delay treatment.

2. Coronary arteries should be imaged, and quantitative assessment of luminal dimensions, normalized as Z scores adjusted for body surface, should be performed.

3. For uncomplicated patients, echocardiography should be repeated both within 1 to 2 weeks and 4 to 6 weeks after treatment.

4. For patients with important and evolving coronary artery abnormalities (Z score > 2.5) detected during the acute illness, more frequent echocardiography (at least twice per week) should be performed until luminal dimensions have stopped progressing to determine the risk for and presence of thrombosis.

5. To detect coronary artery thrombosis, it may be reasonable to perform echocardiography for patients with expanding large or giant aneurysms twice per week while dimensions are expanding rapidly and at least once weekly in the first 45 days of illness, and then monthly until the third month after illness onset, because the failure to escalate thromboprophylaxis in time with the rapid expansion of aneurysms is a primary cause of morbidity and mortality.

Recommendations for Initial Treatment With IVIG and ASA

1. Patients with complete KD criteria and those who meet the algorithm criteria for incomplete KD should be treated with high-dose IVIG (2 g/kg given as a single intravenous infusion) within 10 days of illness onset but as soon as possible after diagnosis.

2. It is reasonable to administer IVIG to children presenting after the 10th day of illness (ie, in whom the diagnosis was missed earlier) if they have either persistent fever without other explanation or coronary artery abnormalities together with ongoing systemic inflammation, as manifested by elevation of ESR or CRP (CRP > 3.0 mg/dL).

3. Administration of moderate- (30–50 mg/kg/d) to high-dose (80–100 mg/kg/d ) ASA is reasonable until the patient is afebrile, although there is no evidence that it reduces coronary artery aneurysms.

4. IVIG generally should not be administered to patients beyond the tenth day of illness in the absence of fever, significant elevation of inflammatory markers, or coronary artery abnormalities.

5. The ESR is accelerated by IVIG therapy and therefore should not be used to assess response to IVIG therapy. A persistently high ESR alone should not be interpreted as a sign of IVIG resistance.

Recommendations for Adjunctive Therapies for Primary Treatment

1. Single-dose pulse methylprednisolone should not be administered with IVIG as routine primary therapy for patients with KD.

2. Administration of a longer course of corticosteroids (eg, tapering over 2–3 weeks), together with IVIG 2 g/kg and ASA, may be considered for treatment of high-risk patients with acute KD, when such high risk can be identified in patients before initiation of treatment

Recommendations for Adjunctive Therapies for Primary Treatment

1. It is reasonable to administer a second dose of IVIG (2 g/kg) to patients with persistent or recrudescent fever at least 36 hours after the end of the first IVIG infusion .

2. Administration of high-dose pulse steroids usually methylprednisolone 20–30 mg/kg intravenously for 3 days, with or without a subsequent course and taper of oral prednisone) may be considered as an alternative to a second infusion of IVIG or for retreatment of patients with KD who have had recurrent or recrudescent fever after additional IVIG .

3. Administration of a longer (eg, 2–3 weeks) tapering course of prednisolone or prednisone, together with IVIG 2 g/kg and ASA, may be considered in the retreatment of patients with KD who have had recurrent or recrudescent fever after initial IVIG treatment.

4. Administration of infliximab (5 mg/kg) may be considered as an alternative to a second infusion of IVIG or corticosteroids for IVIG-resistant patients.

5. Administration of cyclosporine may be considered in patients with refractory KD in whom a second IVIG infusion, infliximab, or a course of steroids has failed.

6. Administration of immunomodulatory monoclonal antibody therapy (except TNF-α blockers), cytotoxic agents, or (rarely) plasma exchange may be considered in highly refractory patients who have failed to respond to a second infusion of IVIG, an extended course of steroids, or infliximab.

Recommendations for Prevention of Thrombosis During the Acute Illness

1. Low-dose ASA (3–5 mg/kg/d) should be administered to patients without evidence of coronary artery changes until 4 to 6 weeks after onset of illness.

2. For patients with rapidly expanding coronary artery aneurysms or a maximum Z score of ≥ 10, systemic anticoagulation with LMWH or warfarin (international normalized ratio target 2.0–3.0) in addition to low-dose ASA is reasonable.

3. For patients at increased risk of thrombosis, for example, with large or giant aneurysms (≥ 8 mm or Z score ≥ 10) and a recent history of coronary artery thrombosis, “triple therapy” with ASA, a second antiplatelet agent, and anticoagulation with warfarin or LMWH may be considered.

4. Ibuprofen and other nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs with known or potential involvement of cyclooxygenase pathway may be harmful in patients taking ASA for its antiplatelet effects.
