Coronary Artery Fistula Draining into Lung Parenchyma Causing Localized Pulmonary Edema: Transcatheter Closure with an Amplatzer Vascular Plug 4

ABSTRACT

Coronary artery fistula draining into lung parenchymal vasculature has not been reported. Herein, we describe a case of an 81-year-old woman who presented with a localized pulmonary edema on right upper lobe associated with coronary fistula emptied into vasculature in right upper lobe. She underwent transcatheter closure of the fistula with an Amplatzer Vascular Plug 4, which resulted in complete occlusion and improved localized pulmonary edema.
