title: [Surgical treatment of a ruptured saccular aneurysm associated with bilateral coronary arteries-pulmonary artery fistulas: a case report].
abstract: We reported a successful operative case of ruptured coronary artery saccular aneurysm associated with bilateral coronary arteries-pulmonary artery fistulas. A 57-year-old woman, had been treated with hemodialysis due to chronic renal failure, suffered from acute heart failure with chest pain suddenly. Echocardiograph showed moderate pericardial effusion. A saccular coronary artery aneurysm with bilateral coronary arteries-pulmonary artery fistulas revealed by coronary angiogram. Ligation of coronary artery fistula, closure of orifice of draining artery to pulmonary artery and aneurysmorrhaphy were performed emergently. Post operative angiogram revealed complete disappearance of the fistulas.
