Minimally invasive coil embolization for significant left-to-right shunts due to giant coronary-to-pulmonary artery fistulas: a case report.

In similar cases, a surgical procedure with ligation of the CPFs combined with resection of a small aneurysm and coronary artery bypass grafting would normally have been considered the best approach. However, endovascular treatment targeting only the fistulas was a superior strategy considering the patient's age. The coil embolization technique effectively controlled the shunt flow of the CPFs. This technique is considerably less invasive than surgical therapy.
