Arteriovenous connection between the aorta and the coronary sinus through a giant fistulous right coronary artery.
Coronary arteriovenous fistulas are rare. The right coronary artery (RCA) seems to be the most common site of origin, while the right ventricle, right atrium and the main pulmonary artery are the most common draining chambers. We report on a patient with fistulas in both coronary arteries: one arising from the circumflex artery and draining into the coronary sinus (CS), and a fistulous connecti...

The giant coronary artery aneurysm combined with coronary artery fistula is extremely uncommon. In our case, there was a giant aneurysm of the left main coronary artery with fistulous communication to the right atrium, combined with moderate aortic valve regurgitation, which was initially found by transthoracic echocardiogram and subsequently confirmed by the 256-slice multidetector computer to...
متن کاملCoronary artery aneurysm with a fistulous connection to the right atrium mimicking a sinus of Valsalva aneurysm.

This case report highlights the difficulty in making a preoperative diagnosis of a coronary artery aneurysm that has fistulated into the right atrium, and lists possible differential diagnoses.

متن کاملCardiovascular images. Giant right coronary aneurysm to left ventricular fistula.
A 59-year-old man was admitted with mild dyspnea on exertion and prior radiographic evidence of cardiac enlargement. His medical history was unremarkable. On physical examination, grade 4 to-and-fro murmur was heard over the left sternal border. ECG showed normal sinus rhythm with left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy. Twodimensional transthoracic echocardiography in the 3-chamber view showed dilat...
