Park, Kim, Kim, Han, Oh, Park, and Seo: Congenital Coronary Arteriovenous Fistula in Adult

Abstract

Five cases of coronary arteriovenous fistula(CAVF) were diagnosed with coronary arteriography during recent 3 years in Seoul National University Hospital.
In one patients, the CAVF was from right coronary artery to left ventricle at posterior aspect. In another, the CAVF was from left circumflex to left atrium. In the remaining three, it was from conal branch of left anterior descending to pulmonary artery. The correct diagnosis for the appropriate treatment of CAVF is important since the incicence of the ischemic coronary heart disease is increasing recently.
