title: [Bilateral coronary-pulmonary fistula and tritruncal stenotic coronary atheroma. Apropos of a new case with review of the literature].
abstract: In a 62 years old patient suffering from stenocardia and paroxysms of atrial fibrillation, coronary angiography disclosed two coronary-pulmonary fistulas associated with a tritruncal stenotic coronary atheroma. During the operation consisting of a double aortocoronary shunt and closing the anomalous pulmonary ostium, a control coronary angiography confirmed the shunt permeability and showed the absence of opacifications at the passage of the fistulas. In the immediate postoperative period the recurrence of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation was no longer accompanied by stenocardia which did not reappear one year after operation. This observation illustrates the fact that coronary-pulmonary fistulas may aggravate a fortuitously associated coronary insufficiency.
