Timeline
| Time | Event |
|---|---|
| 2 months before the diagnosis (first admission to our institution) | Coronary artery was diffusely dilated without aneurysm and that the wall of an abdominal aorta was thickened without aneurysm. |
| Diagnosis of CAEBV | After prednisolone was administered, the wall thickness of an abdominal aorta was decreased. |
| 2 yrs after the diagnosis (allogenic bone marrow transplantation) | An abdominal aortic aneurysm and CIA aneurysm with maximum diameter of 34 mm in the abdominal aorta, and that of 26 mm in the right CIA. |
| 1 month after allogenic bone marrow transplantation | A coronary artery aneurysm from LMT through left anterior descending and RCA with maximum diameter of 7 mm in the LMT, and that of 6 mm in the RCA. |
| 5 yrs after the diagnosis | The EBV-DNA level in peripheral blood decreased to beneath the detection limit. |
| 6 yrs after the diagnosis | Dilation of the aneurysms, with a maximum diameter of 11 mm in the LMT, that of 7 mm in the RCA, and that of 40 mm in the right CIA. |
CAEBV = chronic active EBV; CIA = common iliac artery; EBV = Epstein-Barr virus; LMT = left main trunk; RCA = right coronary artery.
