Abstract:Background
Vieussens’ arterial ring (VAR) is an embryonic conotruncal ring remnant that represents a rare vascular anomaly involving a connection between the right coronary artery (RCA) and the left anterior descending artery (LAD). We describe a unique case of VAR associated with large aneurysmal dilatation, which presents as the formation of a fistula between the coronary artery and pulmonary artery.
