We measured plasma concentrations of high density lipoprotein, total cholesterol and triglycerides in 31 patients with history of kawasaki disease during acute stage and convalescence stage. High density lipoprotein cholesterol and total cholesterol concentrations were significantly lower(P<0.001) in samples taken within 11 days of the onset of illness($28.7{pm}12.4mg/dl$ and $145.20{pm}29.60mg/dl$) than in the second samples taken 1-2months after onset of disease($51.5{pm}15.2mg/dl$ and $175.4{pm}29.0mg/dl$). Change of triglycerides was not significant. There was no correlation between the serum cholesterol cencentration and coronary aneurysm and continued long term surveillance of much population is necessary to monitor lipid level and their relation to development of premature coronary atherosclerosis.
