Özet
A 54-year-old man with acute miyocardial infarction was successfully treated with coronary artery stenting. Coronary angiography is the preferred diagnostic method for imaging the coronary arteries, but coronary artery fistulas origin and course may not be apparent. New tomographic cardiovascular imaging tests such as, multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) can be used to precise delineation of coronary fistulas.
