  • Title: Unusual case of surgically failed coronary-cameral fistula: successful outcome with transradial coil embolization.
    Author: Basit A, Nazir R, Agarwal A.
    Journal: J Invasive Cardiol; 2013 Jan; 25(1):56-7. PubMed ID: 23293177.
    Abstract:
    Coronary-cameral fistula is a rare clinical entity. Symptoms depend upon the size and location of the fistula. Closure of fistula is indicated in the presence of symptoms. Newer, less invasive techniques are being employed and are in constant evolution. We report the first case of a coronary-cameral fistula that failed open surgical treatment and responded to percutaneous transradial intervention. This case illustrates the feasibility of transradial intervention for symptomatic coronary-cameral fistula.
