Abstract
A 69-year-old lady was discovered unconscious. Computed tomography showed pericardial effusion and a coronary artery aneurysm of 25 mm in diameter in front of the main pulmonary artery. Emergency surgery revealed a coronary-pulmonary artery fistula and coronary aneurysm surrounded by a large hematoma. The inflow and outflow of the fistula were closed, and no cardioplegic leakage was noted. Postoperative angiography showed residual fistulas that were successfully closed by transcatheter embolization.Entities:
