large coronary-cameral fistulas in an adult patient: a rare coronary anomaly with concealed clinical findings (case report and literature review)
نویسندگان
چکیده
coronary-cameral fistulas (ccfs) constitute a rare anomaly that can be incidentally detected during angiography. ccfs are solitary, large or small assemblies that originate from coronary arteries and enter one of the cardiac chambers. we describe a 29-year-old woman, who referred to our clinic with the chief complaints of palpitation, atypical chest pain, and dyspnea on exertion (functional class ii). multimodality imaging confirmed the diagnosis of a ccf from the left main with extension to the right atrium and drainage therein. the ccf was closed percutaneously with a patent ductus arteriosus occluder successfully.

The average frequency of coronary-cameral communication (CCC) is 0.09% in the population who undergoes coronary angiography. In addition, coronary-cameral fistula (CCF) constitutes 10% of all CCCs. CCF is probably very rare in adult patients, because the majority of them is detected and treated during childhood. Hereby, we present an asymptomatic adult patient with CCF who was diagnosed inciden...
