Abstract
We evaluated waitlist and post-heart transplant outcomes for children with Kawasaki disease and found that over 3 decades the number of patients requiring heart transplantation in the US is low. Also, patients with Kawasaki disease have similar waitlist and post-transplant outcomes compared with patients with dilated cardiomyopathy.
