Abstract
Abstract
A 46-year-old male patient was referred to our hospital due to the presence of a coronary aneurysm showing a tendency to enlarge. Subsequent coronary angiography revealed a diagnosis of coronary aneurysm with a concomitant coronary-pulmonary artery fistula. The patient underwent a successful surgical repair, and postoperatively, experienced an uneventful recovery with no residual shunt or aneurysm.
