Abstract
Coronary artery fistula, congenital or acquired, is clinically rare. Congenital Coronary artery fistula is reported incidence of 0.1–0.2% in the adult population referred for cardiac catheterization. Coronary artery fistula with aneurysm is an infrequent vascular anomaly. Angiography and echocardiography have traditionally been used as diagnostic tools for coronary artery fistulas. However, the anatomy of the Coronary artery fistula was then determined in detail by 64-multislice computed tomography angiography. We report a rare case of 54-year-old male patient who had a coronary artery fistula associated with giant coronary artery aneurysm and aortic regurgitation.
