Late presentation of an iatrogenic circumflex to left atrial fistula closed with a covered stent.
An anomalous circumflex to left atria fistula following previous excision of an atrial myxoma was successfully occluded percutaneously using a covered stent. The intervention was technically challenging but was possible using a Magnum guide wire via a left radial approach.
