[Postoperative iatrogenic coronaro-ventricular fistula].
Acquired coronary cardiac fistulas are rare. To date, thirty cases have been published in the literature, all secondary to thoracic trauma. The right cardiac chambers were more frequently involved. A recent continuous cardiac murmur is the most constant finding. Nontreated, these lesions tend to induce coronary insufficiency and congestive heart failure. 22 of the 30 reported cases were managed surgically. We hereby report a case of postoperative coronary cardiac fistula secondary to left ventricular venting, in which the fistula involved the left ventricular cavity.
