Rapid transcatheter occlusion of a coronary cameral fistula using a three-lobed vascular occlusion plug.
Transcatheter occlusion of coronary cameral fistulae has been well reported. In large fistulae multiple devices with prolonged procedures are often required for complete occlusion. We present the case of a large right coronary artery-to-right atrial fistula that was rapidly and simply occluded with the three-lobed Amplatzer Vascular Plug 2.
