Congenital coronary artery fistula is a rare anomaly that can cause several types of morbidity and mortality. Interventional occlusion of coronary artery fistula has become a well-accepted alternative to surgical therapy. A coronary cameral fistula originating from right coronary artery (RCA) and draining to right atrium (RA) was occluded with a detachable coil in a two years old girl in catheterization laboratory of Combined Military Hospital (CMH) Dhaka. This is the first ever case of coil occlusion of coronary cameral fistula in Bangladesh, which led to the writing of this report. Keywords: Coronary Cameral Fistula; Coil occlusion.

A coronary cameral fistula is a rare cardiac anomaly and involves an abnormal communication between one of the coronary arteries and a cardiac chamber. In most of cases, it is a congenital lesion and is asymptomatic in early life. Once symptoms appear, patient warrants early evaluation and treatment. Presently, CT Angiography is the best investigation for diagnosing the disease and the best treatment modality is surgical closure. We present a case of a 10 year old male with large coronary cameral fistula from right coronary artery to right atrium, who was symptomatic and was operated for the same.

AbstractA 50-year-old female with palpitations, dyspnoea and slightly dilated left ventricle at echocardiography was referred to Cardiac CT (CCT) for coronary artery assessment. CCT revealed a large fistula from the left main coronary artery to the right atrium, associated with agenesia of the inferior vena cava.

A patient with coronary artery fistula should be considered as high risk for intraoperative hemodynamic decompensation. In this article, we report the case of a 70-year-old man affected by a complex congenital coronary artery fistula defect. The patient underwent general anesthesia for spine surgery with permissive hypotension. The development of sudden intraoperative tachyarrhythmia with hemodynamic instability required immediate resuscitation and interruption of surgery. The claim advanced is that in patients with a coronary artery fistula permissive hypotension might be considered an option only if strictly necessary and real-time cardiac monitoring including transesophageal echocardiography is available to immediately detect and treat acute cardiac impairment.

Congenital coronary artery fistula is an extremely rare anomaly that may involve any of the coronary arteries and any of the cardiac chambers. We report the case of a 14-year-old female patient with a symptomatic congenital coronary fistula starting from the left main coronary artery and draining to the coronary sinus. The patient underwent surgical ligation of the fistula and had an excellent outcome.
