Kawasaki disease is an acute vasculitis of unknown etiology that occurs predominantly in infancy and early childhood. It is characterize by fever, bilateral nonexudative conjunctivitis, erythema of the lips and oral mucosa, changes in the extremities, rash, and cervical lymphadenopathy.1,2 Coronary arterial aneurysms, or ectasia, develop in approximately 15 to 25% of children with the disease, and may lead to myocardial infarction, sudden death, or chronic coronary arterial insufficiency.2–4

Cardiac Manifestations

Kawasaki disease is usually a limited illness of early childhood. However, life-threatening cardiac manifestations can occur, either at acute presentation or as a consequence of coronary arterial involvement. We report the successful use of veno-arterial (VA) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for cardiac support in two children with Kawasaki disease: one with acute Kawasaki disease shock syndrome, the other with complications of coronary arteritis and subsequent surgery. We also reviewed the reported experience in the ELSO database and available literature.
