Coronary-Cameral Fistula Caused by Guidewire Trauma and Resolved by Coil Embolization.

ABSTRACT: A 57-year-old woman presented with effort angina. A coronary angiogram revealed critical 2-vessel disease, for which she subsequently underwent percutaneous coronary intervention. During angioplasty, a coronary guidewire-inadvertently passed into the right ventricle through the septal branches of the posterior descending coronary artery-caused a coronary artery-to-right ventricular fistula. This fistula was successfully closed percutaneously by coil embolization. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a case in which a coronary artery-to-right ventricular fistula caused by a guidewire was managed successfully by coil embolization.

A coronary cameral fistula treated with coil embolization.

Project description:A 56-year-old man who had twice previously undergone orthotopic heart transplantation was admitted with dyspnea and heart failure symptoms. A biopsy excluded rejection. Left heart catheterization revealed a coronary cameral fistula. After the patient was given mild diuretics, his condition improved. No significant fistula flow was detected, and he was discharged. Several months later, the patient was readmitted with worsening chest pain and dyspnea. Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure and flow through the fistula were increased. To correct the coronary cameral fistula, we performed a coil embolization without complications. Several months later at follow-up, the patient's symptoms had resolved, and his left ventricular end-diastolic pressure had normalized. We conclude that coronary fistulas may be caused by trauma to the heart during the de-airing process, which may be prevented in the future with the development of safer and more effective de-airing techniques.

Coil Embolization of Coronary-Cameral Fistula Complicating Revascularization of Chronic Total Occlusion.

Project description:Traumatic vessel perforation is a potential complication of chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary artery intervention (PCI). A rare consequence of this complication is a coronary-cameral fistula. The management of this condition is not well elucidated. Herein, we present such a case of symptomatic left anterior descending to the right ventricle (LAD-RV) fistula which was treated with coil embolization.

Perioperative implications of Coronary-cameral fistula.

Project description:Coronary-cameral fistulas (CCFs) are mostly congenital in origin and rarely acquired. Clinical symptoms are decided by the hemodynamic significance of the coronary fistula. Even in asymptomatic patients, it is essential to know about coronary CCF particularly if the patient is to undergo cardiac surgery with cardioplegic cardiac arrest. Incidental finding of coronary CCF should never be ignored. Intraoperative myocardial protection and methods used are significantly influenced by such fistula.

Coronary cameral fistula and its complications: A case report.

Project description:Coronary cameral fistulas (CCFs) are rare arteriovenous malformations that may be congenital or acquired. The presentation of CCFs varies from asymptomatic in early age to symptomatic and start of complications upon aging. Although percutaneous closure with embolization can also be done, surgical closure of CCFs is a gold standard of treatment. We present the case of a 20-year-old patient with a fistula connecting right coronary artery and the right atrium, along with aortic valve endocarditis and congestive cardiac failure.

Successful coil embolization of a large right coronary artery-coronary sinus fistula causing a significant left-to-right shunt: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundThis case reviews a challenging but successful transcatheter coil embolization of a large congenital coronary artery fistula (CAF) causing a significant left-to-right shunt.Case summaryA 51-year-old female with no significant prior history presented with symptoms of dyspnoea and chest discomfort. Extensive evaluation revealed a large CAF between a tortuous right coronary artery (RCA) and the coronary sinus (CS) composed of three aneurysmal pseudochambers. Closure of the RCA-CS fistula was attempted through coil deployment into the fistula neck. However, due to the brisk flow through the fistula, both coils embolized into the fistula sac. An alternative location was subsequently identified on three-dimensional rendering of a computed tomography angiography scan, which revealed a sharp bend in the RCA prior to the fistula neck and distal to the posterior descending artery (PDA) takeoff. Repeat attempt at embolization was accomplished using a telescoping system to reach and occlude the targeted bend. The coil mass remained stable and angiography demonstrated reduced flow through the fistula and preserved patency of the PDA. The decreased residual flow through the fistula secondary to the initial embolization attempt likely aided the successful deployment of coils in the second and final attempt. At 1 year, the patient was doing well with resolution of her symptoms and no clinical symptoms of coronary ischaemia.DiscussionWe suggest that an initial unsuccessful attempt at transcatheter embolization of a CAF should not preclude subsequent attempts for closure when there exists an appropriate indication.
