| Abstract: | An anomalous coronary artery to pulmonary artery fistula with concomitant aneurysmal dilation is quite rare, especially in the elderly. We present a case report of an 86-year-old female who presented with congestive heart failure from severe mitral regurgitation and was found to have such a coronary anomaly on preoperative angiography. The natural history, diagnosis, and treatment options are discussed. |
