Presentation Transcript

  1. Coronary Arteriovenous Fistula Ali Sepahdari, MD 4/6/07

  2. Fundamental CXR approach

  3. Further subdivision… VSD, ASD, PDA, PAPVC, other TGA, truncus, TAPVC, TA, single vent, DORV, DOLV, HLH, multiple pulm AVM’s

  4. Noncyanotic disease • Is there left atrial enlargement? • If yes, then consider VSD and PDA, and exclude ASD and PAPVC; then ask: • Is there aortic arch enlargement? • If yes, then PDA is more likely than VSD • Exception is in prematurity, where PDA is more common and may not show arch enlargement

  5. Coronary arteriovenous fistula • Approximate incidence is 2 in 100,000 • RCA and LCA probably about equal • Drainage to RV more common than RA; can drain to pulmonary artery • All combinations have been seen • Can be congenital or acquired -- sometimes associated with other anomalies • Sometimes asymptomatic -- presentation with CHF and MI

  6. Treatment • Early ligation is preferred -- expect persistent dilation of the ligated artery • Sometimes do coronary bypass with mammary artery graft • Endovascular embolization also extensively documented • Unclear which method is more effective -- surgical ligation probably better
