Ventricular repolarization lability in children with Kawasaki disease.

abstract：:A 9-year-old girl was admitted because she had had palpitations for 2 years. Her electrocardiogram revealed multifocal ectopic beats with left bundle branch morphology, sinoatrial block, and first- and second-degree atrioventricular blocks. Cross-sectional echocardiography demonstrated an enlarged left ventricle and f...
