AbstractPercutaneous coronary intervention for stenosis of coronary artery after Kawasaki disease presents various challenges.

Herein, we describe our successful experience with a severe coronary artery stenosis at the proximal portion of left anterior descending treated with drug-coated balloon dilation.
