[Myocardial ischemia secondary to a bilateral coronary fistula with drainage into the pulmonary artery trunk].
A case of bilateral coronary artery fistula into main pulmonary artery which courses with crisis of angina and subepicardial ischaemic changes in anterolateral leads is presented. The interest of the case reported is based on the peculiar anatomy of the fistula; there is only an unique collector to the pulmonary artery for both fistula and they present a completely different way of emerging: an unique vessel from the right coronary artery and several vessels from the anterior descending coronary artery. Ligation of the fistula was performed successfully and postoperative course was uneventful.
