ABSTRACT

Background:

Kawasaki disease (KD) potentially increases the risk of myocardial ischemia. This study aimed to semi-quantitatively evaluate myocardial perfusion impairment using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) first-pass perfusion in children with KD and explore the association between coronary artery (CA) dilation and myocardial perfusion.

Methods:

From December 2018 to July 2021, 77 patients with KD (48 male, 5.71±2.80 years) and 37 age- and sex-matched normal controls (20 male, 6.19±3.32 years) who underwent CMR in West China Second University Hospital were enrolled in this cross-sectional study with prospective data collection. A total of 30 of these patients completed the follow-up CMR, with a median interval of 13 months. Myocardial perfusion parameters including perfusion index (PI) and maximum signal intensity (Max SI) were obtained through rest first-pass perfusion. The internal diameter of the CA was assessed via coronary magnetic resonance angiography (CMRA) to calculate the coronary Z score. The global and regional myocardial parameters among the subgroups were compared. Statistical analysis included one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), Pearson's correlation, and multivariate linear regression.

Results:

The global Max SI and regional Max SI of all segments in patients with and without CA dilation decreased compared with those in controls (P=0.19 and P<0.001, respectively). The global PI of patients with CA dilation and regional PI in segments subtended by dilated CA were lower than that of controls (P=0.002 and P<0.001, respectively) and were negatively correlated with the Z score (global r=-0.576; regional r=-0.351, both P<0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed that the Z score was negatively associated with global PI in KD (ß=-0.409, P=0.02, model R2=0.170). The global Max SI of patients with and without CA dilation during the follow-up CMR decreased compared with that of the first CMR (42.18±9.84 vs. 34.48±8.24, P=0.02; 44.82±7.13 vs. 36.61±7.67, P=0.03, respectively).

Conclusions:

CMR myocardial first-pass perfusion imaging can semi-quantitatively evaluate impaired myocardial perfusion in KD patients. Not only patients with CA dilation and segments subtended by dilated CA but also those without CA dilation and segments subtended by non-dilated CA developed myocardial perfusion impairment, the severity of myocardial perfusion impairment is associated with the degree of CA dilation.
