[Spontaneous closure of a coronary fistula between the left anterior descending artery and the pulmonary artery. Apropos of a case].

A 35-year-old man presented with a coronary fistula between the left anterior descending artery (LAD) and the pulmonary artery trunk. Coronary angiography, performed after an inferior infarct, showed occlusion of the posterior descending artery, complete closure of the fistula and good visualization of the LAD. The authors emphasise the association of coronary fistula and coronary atherosclerosis and the ultrasonographic surveillance designed to follow the course of these fistulas and to detect possible spontaneous closures.
