Journal Title: Journal of Hypertension and Cardiology - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
We describe a rare case of multiple coronary artery-left ventricular fistulas associated with apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in a 62 year asymptomatic old male admitted to our department for a perioperative evaluation of non cardiac surgery, already diagnosed for multiple coronary artery-left fistulae. He underwent transthoracic echocardiography and then to accelerated dipiridamole stress-echo.
