Abstract:
On the chest X-ray of a 15-year-old patient, a round, egg-shell-like calcification was seen in projection into the left heart border. This finding was caused by a calcified coronary aneurysm following Kawasaki's disease. Although this has been described as a typical change, it is rarely found in daily clinical routine.
