Coronary fistula as an unusual cause of angina in a middle-aged man

Pediatric Cardiology, Volume 29, No. 5, Year 2008

Coronary artery fistulas are rare congenital anomalies, most often discovered as an isolated murmur during examination, typically discovered during childhood. We report the case of a middle-aged black man presented with angina pectoris and found to have a large coronary fistula between the left main stem and the right ventricle. The fistula was occluded using transcatheter coils. © 2007 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.
