Abstract
We report a case of an artificial fistula between the internal thoracic artery and vein after coronary artery bypass surgery, anastomosing the left internal thoracic artery to the LAD. Because of symptomatic anterior wall ischaemia due to coronary steal a treatment was mandatory. Instead of surgical correction, this shunt was closed by coil embolization of the venous limb.Entities:
