We present a rare case of symptomatic giant coronary artery aneurysms due to Kawasaki disease in an elderly patient. Giant coronary aneurysms are uncommon; even more is their association with ischemic symptoms and left coronary system involvement. Treatment can be challenging, and we discuss the management taken in this case.
