摘 要：Coronary artery fistula （CAF）, an uncommon form of congenital heart disease, is characterized by abnormal communication between a coronary artery and a cardiac chamber or vessel. This disease is often found incidentally in asymptomatic individuals, and leads to cardiac failure, myocardial ischemia and angina, infective endocarditis, and heart rupture in later life. Both surgical repair and transcatheter closure were effective and safe in the treatment of CAF, but percutaneous management of CAF can obviate median sternotomy and cardiopulmonary bypass, and there may be less morbidity with transcatheter embolization techniques, including the use of occluders or microcoils. We report a successful percutaneous closure of a giant CAF from the left coronary artery to the right ventricle using patent duct occluder.
