“…2 Although conservative management is an option in asymptomatic cases, there have been concerns about possible heart failure due to high-volume left-to-right shunt, coronary ischemia due to a non-functioning graft, bacterial endocarditis and fistula rupture. 3,4 In our case, we decided to close the fistula endovascularly for symptom relief and to avoid possible heart failure in the future. No LAD intervention was deemed necessary based on the cardiac CT angiography.…”

De modo similar às fístulas congênitas, falência cardíaca de alto débito, eventos trombóticos, dilatação progressiva com ruptura e hemopericárdio, hipertensão arterial pulmonar, arritmias atriais e ventriculares, e endarterite infecciosa são possíveis complicações.…”

“…It happens more frequently with aortocoronary venous bypass grafts than with arterial grafts. The fistulous communication can occur either in the immediate post-operative period or may manifest after several months or even years [18,19] . This may be asymptomatic or present with heart failure, angina, or continuous precordial murmur.…”
