title: Aorto-left atrial fistula with bicuspid aortic valve and coronary artery origin anomaly.
abstract: Published reports of aorto-left atrial fistula are very rare. We report a 20-year-old man who had an aorto-left atrial fistula with bicuspid aortic valve and coronary artery origin anomaly. Because acquired etiologic factors were not detected, we believe that the lesions were structural defects of congenital origin.
