Left circumflex coronary artery to coronary sinus fistula.

Coronary artery fistula between left coronary artery and coronary sinus in newborn.

Aneurysmal circumflex coronary artery fistula connected to the coronary sinus is a rare clinical entity that usually remains asymptomatic until later in life. The timing of surgical treatment for asymptomatic patients is crucial. The decision to leave or exclude the aneurysmatic coronary artery following ligation of the fistula is controversial. Herein, we report the successful management of a ...

Successful Treatment of a Dilated Circumflex Artery and Coronary Sinus Fistula

Coronary arteriovenous fistula is a rare entity and is mostly diagnosed and corrected in early childhood. We report the case of a 59-year-old female patient who was presented with chest pain during exertion for 3 months because of an aneurysmatic circumflex artery and coronary sinus fistula. We successfully ligated the circumflex artery close to the main stem and to the coronary sinus. The firs...

Clinical Implications of Congenital Absence of Circumflex Coronary Artery

Introduction: Coronary artery anomalies are rare clinical entities reported in 0.6% to 5.6% of diagnostic coronary angiographies. Anomalous origins of coronary arteries from distal segments are rarely reported. Presented herein is a coronary anomaly in which the circumflex artery (CX) originated as a continuation of the posterolateral branch of the right coronary artery (RCA) w...

Left circumflex coronary artery aneurysm with arteriovenous fistula to the coronary sinus presenting as acute coronary syndrome.

Giant Left Circumflex Artery Aneurysm with Coronary Sinus Fistula

Coronary artery fistulas are a very rare cardiac anomaly. The reported Incidence of coronary artery fistula is 0.10.2% in all patients undergoing coronary angiography [1]. 26% of the patients with coronary artery fistula have associated coronary artery aneurysm. Giant coronary artery aneurysms with diameter exceeding 50 mm are extremely rare. As the aneurysm enlarges, complications related to v...
