Minimally invasive coil embolization for significant left-to-right shunts due to giant coronary-to-pulmonary artery fistulas: a case report.

Background: Coronary-to-pulmonary artery fistula (CPF) is a rare disease, and its optimal treatment strategy remains controversial. Herein, we report a rare case of minimally invasive coil embolization of giant CPFs.

Case Summary: A 78-year-old man with a history of persistent atrial fibrillation and lumbar canal stenosis presented to our hospital with breathlessness.

Pseudo dilated cardiomyopathy: Dilated cardiomyopathy-like changes due to a combination of stuck mechanical mitral valve and coronary microvascular dysfunction-An autopsy case.

Thrombus formation in the microvessels and endocardium was suggestive of endothelial cell damage, myocardial ischemia, and a decreased coronary flow reserve. Sustained pulmonary hypertension due to thrombosis worsened the biventricular dysfunction.
