A Coronary Artery-left Ventricular Fistula through the Sinusoid

A 78-year-old woman was referred to our hospital because of repetitive suppurative arthritis at the artificial left knee joint. Her plasma brain natriuretic peptide level was 122 pg/mL. A 12-lead electrocardiogram showed a QS pattern in the inferior leads. A two-dimensional echocardiogram revealed h...

description A 78-year-old woman was referred to our hospital because of repetitive suppurative arthritis at the artificial left knee joint. Her plasma brain natriuretic peptide level was 122 pg/mL. A 12-lead electrocardiogram showed a QS pattern in the inferior leads. A two-dimensional echocardiogram revealed hypokinesis at the inferior wall and hypertrophy at the apical lateral wall. Color flow imaging revealed this hypertrophic region to be a myocardial sinusoid, demonstrating diastolic coronary to left ventricular flow and early systolic flow vice versa. This was a very rare case of coronary to left ventricular fistula through a sinusoid without cyanotic congenital heart disease or severe coronary artery disease.
