Characteristics and outcomes of patients with stent implantation for coronary artery lesions caused by Kawasaki disease - insights from second-generation stent implantation.

Methods: A total of nine lesions in eight (seven males, one female) patients who underwent stent implantations in this population between 2000 and 2021 were reviewed.
