ABSTRACT

Coronary cameral fistula (CCF) is a very rare coronary anomaly in which a communication exists between one of the coronaries and a cardiac chamber. Most of the times it is an incidental finding detected at the time of a coronary angiography. However, sometimes it can have serious presentation like unstable angina, coronary steal or ventricular arrhythmia. We present a rare case of coronary cameral fistula arising from left circumflex artery (LCx) draining in to left ventricular (LV) apex and presenting as unstable angina.
