Giant Right Coronary Artery with Coronary Artery Fistula Complicated by Infective Endocarditis: Multimodality Imaging Approach

A 65-year-old woman presented to the emergency department feeling feverish and having dyspnea. A chest X-ray revealed multifocal nodular consolidation, indicating possible embolic infarction. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed vegetation attached to the aortic valve (Fig. 1A, arrow), resulting in moderate aortic regurgitation (see Supplementary Video 1, 2 in the onlineonly Data Supplement)...

Right coronary artery aneurysm.

Coronary artery aneurysms, characterized by abnormal dilatations of a localized portion of the coronary artery, are an uncommon finding during angiography. We present a case where a giant right coronary aneurysm was detected during angiography, in a patient admitted with a inferior wall myocardial infarction.

Giant right coronary artery aneurysm- case report and literature review

Introduction Although the coronary artery aneurysms (CAA) are not uncommon, giant aneurysms are rare. Clinical presentation, prognosis and management of giant CAA are not well defined due to limited experience. Recently, there are increasing reports suggesting the occurrence of CAA as a complication of drug eluting stent implantation and angioplasty. Therefore, there is a need to report present...

Technical Considerations of Giant Right Coronary Artery Aneurysm Exclusion

Giant coronary artery aneurysms are rare clinical entities. We report the case of a 49-year-old man who presented with dyspnoea and exertional chest pain. Investigations confirmed an aneurysmal right coronary artery measuring 4 cm with a fistulous communication to the right atrium. Following right atriotomy, the fistula was oversewn and the aneurysmal right coronary artery ligated at its origin...
