Isolated congenital coronary arteriovenous fistula.

Abstract:

:During the last eight years a total of nine cases of isolated congenital coronary arteriovenous fistula (CAVF) have been diagnosed at our centre. Age of these patients ranged from 11 days to 22 years (mean 6.4 +/- 4.2 years). There were seven male and two female patients. Right and left coronary arteries were the sites of origin in seven and three cases respectively. One patient had two fistulae, one each originating from right coronary artery and obtuse marginal artery. The drainage sites were right ventricle in seven cases and right atrium in two. The pulmonary artery pressure was normal in eight cases and elevated in one case. The pulmonary artery to systemic flow ratio ranged from 1.1:1-2.4:1 in all except the 11 day-old-baby in whom it was 4:1. Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVRI) was below 3.5 in all cases (range 1.0-3.5 units). Surgical ligation of fistula was done in four cases and two patients underwent coil embolisation of fistula. Follow-up is available in five out of eight patients including three cases in whom CAVF was closed. Two other young patients are being followed-up conservatively and all the patients are asymptomatic. CAVF can present at any age; majority of the cases have small left to right shunts and more commonly CAVF arise from right coronary artery. Surgical ligation of fistula is safe in older patients, non-surgical embolisation using coils may be an alternative to surgery in selected cases.
