title: [Myocardial infarct and coronary fistula. A rare combination].
abstract: We report an unusual case of a 39-years-old male patient, with previous inferior and anterior non Q wave myocardial infarctions, in whom the coronary arteriography showed an arteriovenous fistula between the left anterior descending coronary artery and the pulmonary artery, without any other coronary lesions. We make a revision of this disease and discuss the mechanisms of ischemia.
