Coronary artery fistula (CAF) are abnormal connections between a coronary artery and cardiac chambers or with other vessels. CAF occurs in about 0.1% of adult patients and most commonly affects the right heart. We present a rare case of left circumflex coronary artery aneurysm with fistula to the left ventricle.

Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), necrotizing vasculitis of small and medium-sized vessels, is traditionally believed to mainly affect respiratory tract with additional focal kidney involvements as its primary manifestations with a relatively rare annual incidence rate of 20-50 cases per million. Six percent of the affected cases have cardiac involvements; among which, aneurysms comprise the lowest penetrance. By this paper, we aim to cast light on clinical diagnostic and treatment methods of a rare case presentation, a 10-year-old male GPA patient, diagnosed with massive thrombosis at his coronary artery aneurysm. GPA should be considered as differential diagnosis of prolong fever and coronary aneurysms in adolescents.
