Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy associated with multiple coronary artery-left ventricular fistulae: a report of a case and review of the literature

Christos Dresios et al. Eur J Echocardiogr. 2010 May.

Abstract

We present a rare case of multiple coronary artery-left ventricular (LV) fistulae, associated with apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in an 83-year-old woman with electrocardiographic abnormalities and a history of arterial hypertension and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. In order to evaluate the clinical significance and obtain further insights into this unusual disease, the patient has undergone coronary angiography, left ventriculography, and magnetic resonance imaging which better substantiated the structural abnormalities of the LV and the coronary network.
