Project description:Here we present a case of an asymptomatic patient with a giant coronary artery aneurysm developed in the context of diffuse coronary artery ectasia. Giant coronary artery aneurysm was complicated by the presence of a large thrombus. The heart team settled for surgical treatment of the lesion. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.)

A giant coronary artery aneurysm with coronary arteriovenous fistula in asymptomatic elderly patient.

Project description:Coronary Arteriovenous Fistula (CAF) is a rare defect that occurs in 0.1-0.2% of patients undergoing coronary angiography; Coronary Artery Aneurism (CAA) also occurs in approximately 15-19% of patients with CAF. It is usually congenital, but in rare occasions it occurs after chest trauma, cardiac surgery, or coronary interventions. The case described is that of a 72-year-old woman, without previous history of cardiovascular disease, who presented a huge cardiac mass. A multimodal approach was necessary to diagnose a giant CAA with CAF responsible for compression and displacement of cardiac structures. Due to likely congenitally origin of the lesion and the absence of symptoms correlated to the CAA and to the CAF we decided to avoid invasive interventions and to treat the patient with medical therapy.

Giant Aneurysm of the Right Coronary Artery: Multimodality Imaging and Interventional Management.

Project description:A large (40-mm) circular structure in the right atrioventricular groove was detected by transthoracic echocardiography and was diagnosed as a giant aneurysm of the right coronary artery. Through invasive mapping by a guide extension catheter, the aneurysm could be excluded by implantation of 3 overlapping stent grafts. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.).

Case Report: Isolate Congenital Coronary Artery Fistula With Giant Artery Aneurysm in a Neonate.

Project description:A rare case of neonatal congenital coronary artery, right ventricle fistula with giant coronary artery aneurysm formation, was reported. Computed tomography angiography demonstrated the dilated and tortuous tunnel arising from the right aortic sinus and traversing the epicardial surface before opening into the anterolateral aspect of the RV. Successful surgical repair was performed with a patch closure of the fistula and coronary angioplasty. The postoperative recovery was uneventful. Our experience of this rare congenital heart disease demonstrated that early surgical repair of coronary artery fistula and coronary angioplasty in the neonate can be performed safely. Further study is needed to seek the basis on this.

Case report: Multimodality imaging revealing ruptured giant coronary artery aneurysm presenting with hemoptysis.

Project description:Giant coronary artery aneurysm (CAA) is a relatively uncommon disease that is defined by a focal dilation of at least 20 mm and characterized by various clinical symptoms. However, cases presenting primarily with hemoptysis have not been reported. A man in his late 20 s suffering from persistent chest pain for over 2 months was transferred to our emergency department for intermittent hemoptysis lasting for 12 h. Bronchoscopy detected fresh blood in the left upper lobe bronchus without a definite bleeding source. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated a heterogeneous mass and the high-intensity signals suggested active bleeding. coronary computed tomography (CT) angiography demonstrated a giant ruptured CAA wrapped in a large mediastinal mass Coronary angiography confirmed the CAA originating from the left anterior descending artery. The patient underwent an emergency sternotomy and an enormous hematoma arising from a ruptured CAA densely adhering to the left lung was identified. The patient recovered uneventfully and was discharged on the 7th day later. The ruptured CAA masquerading as hemoptysis highlights the indispensability of multimodality imaging for accurate diagnosis. Urgent surgical intervention is desirable in such life-threatening conditions.

Left anterior descending coronary artery compressed by a giant coronary fistula aneurysm: a case report.

Project description:Background:Ischaemic chest pain can be originated by different causes. Among all, coronary fistulas are rarely the reason. Such entities are usually asymptomatic and can be diagnosed by echocardiography or coronary angiography. In an even rarer scenario, coronary fistulas might dilate and form an aneurysm. Case summary:We report the case of a 62-year-old patient who was initially referred to the emergency department for stable angina. Coronary angiography and computed tomography scan showed a giant aneurysm relating to a coronary fistula with a course from the circumflex coronary artery to the superior vena cava. The aneurysm was critically compressing the left anterior descending coronary artery. It was confirmed and resolved by surgery. Discussion:Giant aneurysms of a coronary fistula are very uncommon entities. We describe a rare case of angina caused by extrinsic compression of the left anterior descending artery from a giant aneurysm of a coronary fistula.

Surgical management of a giant right coronary artery aneurysm with coronary arteriovenous fistula: case report.

Project description:BackgroundCoronary artery aneurysms (CAAs) are uncommon, and giant aneurysms (>2 cm) are even more unusual. Coronary atherosclerosis and Kawasaki disease are the leading causes for this pathology. The treatment for this condition is controversial because the evidence is based on case report series.Case summaryWe describe the case of a 77-year-old female patient who presented with heart failure symptoms. She was diagnosed with a giant saccular aneurysm arising from the right coronary artery (RCA) ostium and a fistula between the RC and the left anterior descending artery (LAD) to the coronary sinus. And an atrial septal defect (ASD) and severe tricuspid regurgitation were also found. The patient underwent surgery through a medium sternotomy, the aneurysm was opened and resected under cardiopulmonary bypass. The RCA was ligated at the distal end of the aneurysm, and a saphenous vein graft bypass was performed. A coronary arteriovenous fistula from the distal portion of RC and LAD artery to a severely enlarged coronary sinus was found and corrected with an autologous pericardial patch. Closure of the ASD was performed with a pericardial patch and a tricuspid ring annuloplasty was done. Post-operative course was uneventful.DiscussionThere are few cases of giant coronary aneurysms associated with fistulas reported in the literature. Despite the endovascular percutaneous techniques available to treat these patients, we believe that surgical treatment was the best option for this particular case. We consider that surgical treatment is a very good option for giant CAAs associated with AV fistulas that are not susceptible for current endovascular available devices. The literature lacks evidence regarding the best approach for these cases, and we think that invasive treatment should be tailored according to the heart's anatomy and patient risk.
