Characterization of intra-arterial flow velocity within left coronary to pulmonary artery fistula

S R Bitar et al. Cathet Cardiovasc Diagn. 1997 Jun.

Abstract

The physiology of a coronary to pulmonary artery fistula has not been well characterized. This case report demonstrates the flow velocity pattern of a coronary fistula to the pulmonary artery which supports the hypothesized physiology that flow is predominantly continuous without a phasic pattern. The flow velocity within a coronary fistula has not been previously demonstrated.
