ABSTRACT
A 58-year-old man was admitted for stable angina. The coronary angiogram revealed a coronary-pulmonary fistula with a nonsignificant atheroma. We decided to perform percutaneous embolization of the fistula in view of the symptoms and the hemodynamic assessment findings. Embolization was performed using a liquid embolic agent with no residual flow. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.).
ABSTRACT
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a rare cause of acute myocardial infarction (ACS). We report a case of acute coronary syndrome due to SCAD of the right coronary artery. Diagnosis was based on clinical presentation and coronary angiography, and confirmed by optical coherence tomography which guided our treatment strategy. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.).
