Surgical repair of a right coronary artery fistula to the right ventricle in a child

Abstract

Congenital coronary artery fistula is a relatively rare cardiac anomaly accounting for 0.2-0.4% of all congenital heart defects, and when isolated, is commonly asymptomatic. We present a case of an asymptomatic 9-year-old boy who underwent successful surgical repair of a right coronary artery fistula to the right ventricle.
