Coronary-Bronchial Fistula: Coil the Steal.

ABSTRACT: Coronary artery fistula is a rare coronary anomaly with communication between the coronary artery and either the cardiac chamber or other vessels. We present a case of coronary-to-bronchial artery fistula that resulted in likely coronary artery steal and was treated with coil embolization. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.).

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.

Rare Cause of Late Recurrent Angina following Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: Iatrogenic Aortocoronary Arteriovenous Fistula Causing Coronary Steal.

Project description:Iatrogenic aortocoronary arteriovenous fistula is a very rare complication of coronary artery bypass grafting in which one of the arterial grafts inadvertently forms a fistulous tract with a cardiac vein, shunting blood from the anastomosed coronary artery. We report a patient with an iatrogenic left internal mammary artery graft to cardiac vein fistula presenting with recurrent angina three years after a three-vessel coronary artery bypass grafting.

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

Project description: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.

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.

Percutaneous Coil Embolization for Symptomatic Coronary Fistula: Pre-Operative Cardiovascular Optimization Before Renal Transplantation.

Project description:Pre-operative optimization of cardiovascular conditions in patients awaiting renal transplantation significantly improves post-transplantation cardiac complications. We describe a case of symptomatic coronary fistula treated with percutaneous coil embolization in a young adult awaiting renal transplantation. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).

Percutaneous Coil Embolization of Coronary Artery Fistula Complicated by Refractory Ventricular Fibrillation and Cardiogenic Shock.

Project description:We present a case of a 56-year-old patient with a symptomatic right coronary artery to pulmonary artery fistula who underwent coil embolization. Post-procedure, the patient developed ventricular fibrillation that was refractory to antiarrhythmic medications and numerous attempts at defibrillation. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.).

Interpretation of coronary steal syndrome and haemodynamic changes after surgical closure of coronary fistula using Doppler wire and computational fluid dynamics analysis: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundCoronary arteriovenous fistulas (CAFs) are rare but can cause myocardial ischaemia and other complications. However, the haemodynamic and physiologic characteristics of significant CAFs requiring treatment are poorly described. We report a case of CAF causing coronary steal syndrome in which haemodynamic changes were assessed before and after surgical closure using a Doppler wire and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique.Case summaryA 51-year-old woman presented with exertional chest pain for 3 years. Progressive dyspnoea occurred with exertion. Treadmill and cardiopulmonary exercise tests showed suspicious myocardial ischaemia. Coronary angiography and contrast-enhanced coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) revealed a coronary fistula arising from the distal left main coronary artery that drained into the pulmonary artery trunk. We observed a persistent coronary steal phenomenon at baseline and during hyperaemia and a systolic dominant flow rate pattern inside the CAF by Doppler wire-based flow rate measurement. According to CFD analysis based on CCTA, low wall shear stress and a high focal oscillatory shear index were observed at the ostial sites of aneurysmal sacs in the CAF. After successful surgical closure of the CAF, the vessel sizes and flow rate distributions of the coronary arteries increased.DiscussionDoppler wire-based flow rate distribution measurements and CFD analysis may facilitate the identification of significant coronary steal syndrome requiring closure and the evaluation of future risks of life-threatening complications such as thrombosis and rupture.

Dual Left Main Coronary Arteries With Ischemia and Coronary Steal

Project description:A 59-year-old man had angina and an abnormal perfusion scan. Work-up revealed 2 left main coronary arteries: the anomalous artery originated from the right coronary cusp and took an aberrant interventricular septal course; the other artery was atretic. He underwent surgical unroofing, with resolution of symptoms. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.) Central Illustration

Coronary subclavian steal syndrome causing acute coronary syndrome: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundMyocardial infarction on non-occluded coronary artery represents a very specific subset of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Coronary subclavian steal syndrome (CSSS) is defined by a left subclavian artery stenosis in case of (i) left internal mammary artery (LIMA) used to bypass left anterior descending artery (LAD) and (ii) >75% stenosis of the left subclavian artery prior to the origin of the LIMA to LAD graft. Here we report the case of a CSSS causing ACS.Case summaryA 71-year-old man with history of LIMA to LAD coronary artery bypass surgery was admitted to the nephrology intensive care unit for acute kidney injury requiring dialysis. Due to rapid deterioration, altered left ventricular ejection fraction and elevated c-troponin levels, an urgent coronary angiography was performed. It revealed a subtotal occlusion of the left subclavian artery prior to the origin of the LIMA to LAD graft. This was responsible for a severely altered coronary flow in the LIMA and LAD. Revascularization of the proximal left subclavian artery with a stent was performed, enabling instant recovery of distal coronary flows.DiscussionACS due to CSSS in this report highlights the complexity of the cardio-renal interaction. Patients with coronary artery bypass graft and chronic kidney disease commonly exhibit a higher risk for severe progression of atherosclerosis at multiple sites. CSSS treatments include secondary prevention measures and revascularization (if indicated) such as an endovascular approach.
