Aorto-Right Atrial and Aorto-Right Ventricular Fistulas as a Complication of Subacute Infective Endocarditis.

Unlabelled: Aorto-atrial fistula (AAF) and aorto-ventricular fistula (AVF) are a rare, but potentially life-threatening condition, where an anomalous connection forms between the aortic structures and the cardiac atria or ventricles. The exact incidence of this condition is unknown, as are the major precipitating factors and best treatment options. It may be congenital, secondary to conditions such as aortic dissection, infective endocarditis, or valve replacement, or iatrogenic in nature.

Article Synopsis
- Aorto-right ventricular outflow tract fistulas usually happen due to trauma, infections, or aneurysm ruptures.
- This case is unique because the fistula formed spontaneously without these common causes.
- It was linked to a supracristal ventricular septal defect and resulted in dilated cardiomyopathy.

We present a synthesis of 95 published investigations of the exceedingly rare tunnels that can exist between the aortic root and the left or right ventricles. From the 220 suitable cases included in these investigations, we reviewed the clinical presentations, modalities used for diagnosis, surgical approaches, and outcomes. Diagnostic information was provided by clinical presentation, radiographic findings, saline contrast echocardiography, computed tomographic angiocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging, cardiac catheterization, and angiocardiography.

Background: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is the procedure of choice for aortic stenosis in high surgical risk patients, but it is no free from complications.
Case Summary: A 86-year-old patient with severe aortic stenosis underwent TAVI 3 years ago with an Edwards Sapiens valve by femoral access. In the echocardiography follow-up, an aorta-right ventricular (Ao-RV) fistula was noted with restrictive flow and no significant shunt and it was treated conservatively.
