Multiple bilateral coronary-biventricular fistulas with elevated left ventricular end-diastolic pressure.
Arterioventricular fistulas are relatively rare abnormalities and the etiology may be congenital or traumatic. We report a case of a 51-year-old woman in which all three coronary arteries emptied into both ventricles via multiple small fistulas resulting in elevated left ventricular end-diastolic pressure.
