“…In previously reported patients, the diagnosis was made by echocardiography, angiocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging, during surgery, and at necropsy. 2,3,8 However, the most signifi cant clinical implication of CPAF is the need for detailed and accurate recognition before surgery. Therefore, preoperative cardiac catheterization is critical for successful repair.…”

Congenital coronary-pulmonary artery fistula is rare in patients with pulmonary atresia and ventricular septal defect. The nomenclature, physiological, clinical, and surgical implications of these fistulas are yet to be defined. We report a one-year-old child with pulmonary atresia, ventricular septal defect, and a right coronary-pulmonary artery fistula who also had a diminutive, disconnected left pulmonary artery in addition to aortopulmonary collaterals. The patient underwent corrective surgery. However, the fate of diminutive pulmonary arteries is unknown. The literature was reviewed to explore the clinical or surgical implications of such fistulas for improved understanding and management in the future.

“…In previously reported studies and case reports, the diagnosis was made by transthoracic echocardiography, cardiac cauterization, cardiac CT, magnetic resonance imaging, and during surgery. [78] In our reported case, the cardiac CT images were inconclusive in interpretation because child had tachycardia during the procedurethat resulted in imaging artefacts. The important clinical implication of coronary to PA fistula is the need for detailed investigations, recognition, before taking up for surgery.…”

Congenital coronary-pulmonary artery fistula is a rare condition and is usually associated with pulmonary atresia. We present a 10-year-old girl with circumflex coronary artery to pulmonary artery (PA) fistula with a giant dilated circumflex coronary artery, ventricular septal defect (VSD), pulmonary atresia, and anomalous originofleft anterior descending (LAD) artery from right coronary sinus. The patient underwent surgical correction. We report the investigation, treatment, and review of literatureof this rare congenital anomaly associated with dilated circumflex coronary artery.
