Abstract

A 50-year-old man was referred to our hospital due to chest pain and loss of consciousness. Diagnosed with cardiac tamponade, he underwent emergency percutaneous pericardial drainage and endotracheal intubation. AAD was not found, although aortic root dissection was suspected from the CT scan and CAG. The MDCT revealed a 16 mm ruptured coronary artery aneurysm connected to the LMT with a CA-PA fistula. Urgently, coronary artery aneurysmectomy, CA-PA fistula repair, and CABG were performed, and the postoperative course was smooth. Surgery reports for ruptured coronary artery aneurysm are rare, so we report the successful surgical case.
