Abstract

A 42-year-old man with a 6-month-long fever was found to have chronic active Epstein-Barr virus infection complicated by aneurysmal coronary arteries with other arteries. In adult patients with this infection, coronary aneurysms are rare but are a poor prognostic factor. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.)
