Right Coronary Artery to Left Ventricular Fistula with a Giant Right Coronary Artery Aneurysm
2010
A right coronary artery to left ventricular fistula with a giant right coronary artery aneurysm is a very rare condition. This requires surgical treatment because of the possibility of rupture of aneurysm, heart failure and infective endocarditis. A 47 years old male patient with dyspnea on exertion for 3 months was diagnosed as having a right coronary artery to left ventricular fistula with a giant right coronary artery aneurysm according to the CT and coronary artery angiography. We resected the aneurysm and performed a coronary artery bypass graft. (Korean J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2010;43:296-299)
