Abstract
Coronary artery fistulas (CAF) are rare abnormalities that can be symptomatic or asymptomatic. Most drain into the right ventricle or pulmonary artery, though a variety of other drainage sites have been reported. We report the results of the surgical closure of a symptomatic left coronary-to-pulmonary artery fistula associated with a giant 10-cm aneurysm and discuss the management of coronary artery fistulas.Entities:
