We discuss the challenges of diagnosing and managing coronary artery stenosis in paediatric patients with KD, particularly in cases with calcified and thrombosed lesions.

The evaluation of the lesion and its follow-up is an important factor in anticipating the best therapeutic choice for each patient.
