As the distal part of the fistula was similar to a tunnel-shaped patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) and was measured 4 mm at the narrowest diameter, we opted for an Amplatzer duct occluder II 6 × 6 (Abbott Vascular, Chicago, IL, USA) to close it.

Abstract

A coronary-to-pulmonary-artery fistula (CPAF) is defined as a connection between the coronary arteries and the pulmonary arteries (PAs). Invasive treatment op - tions for CPAFs include surgical ligation and transcatheter coil or plug embolization. A 60-year-old female patient was referred to our hospital with symptoms of exercise-induced angina (Canadian Cardiovascular Society Class III [CCS- 3]). Her relevant history included elective stenting of the left anterior descending (LAD) artery in 2013 and surgery for an LAD to PA fistula in 2015. Upon recurrence of the same fistula in 2017, she underwent a failed antegrade (from LAD to PA) attempt for percutaneous closure of the fistula. A ret- rograde approach was decided because of the extensive tortuosity of the fistula’s proximal part that led to the previ- ous failed attempt and the likelihood of ceasing whole blood flow at the fistula’s distal neck. Through right femoral venous access, we advanced a 5 Fr. 45 cm TorqVue low-profile de- livery system (St. Jude Medical, Little Canada, MN, USA) over a J-tip 0.035-inch guidewire to the PA. The antegrade imaging guidance enabled us to advance the guidewire to the distal neck of the fistula retrogradely. As the distal part of the fistula was similar to a tunnel-shaped patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) and was measured 4 mm at the narrowest diameter, we opted for an Amplatzer duct occluder II 6 × 6 (Abbott Vascular, Chicago, IL, USA) to close it.

Özet

Koroner-pulmoner arter fistülü (KPAF), koroner arter- ler ile pulmoner arterler (PA) arasında bir bağlantı olarak ta- nımlanır. KPAF’lerinin girişimsel tedavi seçenekleri, cerrahi ligasyon ve transkateter koil ya da tıkaç embolizasyonudur. 60 yaşında kadın hasta, merkezimize egzersiz ile indükle- nen CCS-3 (Canadian Cardiovascular Society Klas III) an- gına şikayeti ile başvurdu. Özgeçmişinde 2013 yılında sol ön inen koroner artere (LAD) elektif stent işlemi ve 2015 yı- lında LAD - PA fistülü nedeni ile operasyon yer almaktaydı. 2017’de aynı fistülün tekrarlaması üzerine, antegrad perkü- tan fistül kapama denenmiş ancak başarısız olunmuştu. Bir önceki işlemin başarısızlığına neden olan fistülün proksimal boynundaki ciddi tortuozite ve kan akımının fistülün distal boynunda kesilmesi ihtimali dikkate alınarak retrograd yak- laşım seçildi. Sağ femoral ven yoluyla, 5 Fr. 45 cm TorqVue düşük profilli taşıma sistemi (St Jude Medical, Little Cana- da, MN, USA) 0.035-inç J-uçlu kılavuz tel üzerinden pulmo- ner artere ilerletildi. Antegrad görüntüleme desteği ile, kıla- vuz tel retrograd olarak fistülün distal boynuna ilerletilebildi. Fistülün distal kısmı tünel şekilli patent duktus arteriosus’a (PDA) benzediğinden ve en dar yerinde 4 mm ölçüldüğün- den, kapatmak için Amplatzer duct occluder II 6x6 (Abbott Vascular, Chicago, IL, USA) tercih edildi.
