title: New strategies in the percutaneous management of coronary artery fistulae: A case report.
abstract: Coronary artery fistulae are rare anomalies often treated percutaneously. New techniques aiding in the percutaneous closure of a giant coronary artery, not previously described, are presented in a case report. These techniques include the use of intravascular ultrasound imaging and the use of electrolytically detachable platinum coils.
