Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(5):658-666.   Published online May 15, 2000
Purpose : We performed the study to evaluate the risk factors associated with cardiac complication and the outcome of coronary lesions after high-dose(2g/kg, 1dose) gammaglobulin(IVIG) treatment in patients with Kawasaki disease(KD). Methods : Retrospective studies were performed on 338 cases of KD treated with high-dose IVIG at this hospital from May 1994 to March 1999. Results : Among 338 patients,...
