Coronary Atherosclerosis with Dual Coronary Artery Fistulas

Coronary artery fistula (CAF) is an uncommon congenital anomaly. Bilateral CAFs, arising from both right and left coronary arteries are rare. Myocardial infarction is by far a less frequent complication of CAF than angina pectoris. Ligation of CAF and coronary artery bypass graft were performed in t...

Zusammenfassung:	Coronary artery fistula (CAF) is an uncommon congenital anomaly. Bilateral CAFs, arising from both right and left coronary arteries are rare. Myocardial infarction is by far a less frequent complication of CAF than angina pectoris. Ligation of CAF and coronary artery bypass graft were performed in the treatment of coronary artery stenosis with CAF.
