title: Left-circumflex coronary artery to right atrium fistula with saccular aneurysm and its endovascular treatment.
abstract: The combination of coronary artery aneurysm and coronary artery fistula is infrequent. A saccular aneurysm of a branch of the left-circumflex coronary artery associated with multiple fistulae to the right atrium was observed on a coronary angiogram performed in a 47-year-old female. Multidetector computed tomography coronary angiography detailed the anatomy of the abnormal coronary artery. An embolization with a microcoil was performed and the aneurysm sac was excluded.
