  • Title: Bi-directional flow in coronary-to-left ventricular fistula.
    Author: Chen JP, Rodie J.
    Journal: Int J Cardiol; 2009 Mar 20; 133(1):e41-2. PubMed ID: 18155306.
    Abstract:
    Coronary artery fistulae are rare congenital anomalies occasionally observed during coronary angiography. We present a case of retrograde coronary opacification during left ventriculography. This is the first reported case of angiographically documented bi-directional flow in these structures. Due to advanced age and personal wishes, the patient was treated medically. The epidemiology, pathophysiology, and therapy for coronary fistulae are briefly discussed.
