J Interv Cardiol. 2002 Jun;15(3):209-13. doi: 10.1111/j.1540-8183.2002.tb01059.x.

Abstract

This report describes a case of a 47-year-old man who presented with early post-Q wave myocardial infarction angina and an atherosclerotic left anterior descending stenosis associated to a coronary-to-pulmonary artery fistula. Both coronary stenosis and fistula were successfully treated with a single polytetrafluoroethylene-covered stent graft implantation by intravascular ultrasound-guided procedure.
