Abstract: | Two asymptomatic children with an atypical continuous murmur and a clinical diagnosis of coronary artery fistula are reported. Cross-sectional and Doppler echocardiography led to the diagnosis of a right coronary artery-right ventricule fistula in both cases, which was confirmed by coronary angiography. Surgical closure of the fistula was realized without complications. |
