Abstract Coronary abnormalities are frequent in pulmonary atresia and intact ventricular septum, mainly in patients with a very diminutive right ventricle. They severely impact on early and late prognosis. We describe an 8-year-old girl who presented with myocardial ischaemia, late after uneventful Fontan completion. The importance of precise delineation of the coronary anatomy upon initial assessment and during follow-up is emphasised.

AbstractWe report the case of a neonate with pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum and coronary cameral fistulae despite having a subsystemic right ventricle. We review the literature on coronary cameral fistulae in this disease and right ventricle-dependent coronary circulation. We discuss the potential consequences of this physiology, including risk of adverse cardiovascular events that may impact risk stratification and surgical palliation.
