Abstract

We report the successful management of a circumflex coronary artery aneurysm with fistula to the coronary sinus. Our strategy aimed at closing the fistula and grafting the obtuse marginal artery. The calcified aneurysm was left intact, and showed secondary thrombus formation on the postoperative angiogram.
