[Coronary-cameral fistulae drained into left ventricle causing acute coronary syndrome?].
Coronary-cameral fistulae are rare and predominantly congenital communication between the coronary arterial circulation and the chambers or great vessels of the heart, accounted for less than 0.4% of all congenital heart abnormalities. We presented a case of 47 year-old female with troponin positive acute coronary syndrome admitted to our coronary care unit in whom we diagnosed coronary-cameral fistulae which could cause myocardial ischaemia.
