A coronary coronary-to-coronary fistula around the main pulmonary artery

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Coronary-to-coronary fistulas are rare anomalies, often detected incidentally. These fistulas may involve complex vascular connections around major cardiac structures, such as the pulmonary artery. Functional assessments help determine clinical significance, with management typically involving observation for asymptomatic patients, while symptomatic cases may require intervention to prevent complications.
