Congenital coronary arteriovenous fistulas represent abnormal communication between coronary arteries and any cardiac chambers, pulmonary artery, coronary sinus, superior vena cava or pulmonary vein. We reported an interesting case of very long and tortuous coronary arteriovenous fistulas originated from the left circumflex coronary artery, which drained into bronchial arteries in right lower lung field diagnosed by coronary angiography and multidetector computed tomography.
