ABSTRACT = {A congenital coronary artery fistula (CCAF) combined with giant coronary aneurysm (CAA) is a rare congenital
cardiac abnormality. We reported an 8-year-old patient who underwent transcatheter closure of both inlet and
outlet of a proximal left coronary artery (LCA)-to-left ventricular (LV) fistula with CAA of 41 mm × 28 mm
in diameter, during which acute occlusion of left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) occurred immediately after device implantation at the inlet of fistula. We managed to prevent the patient from major adverse cardiac events by conservative therapy with dual antiplatelet agents instead of surgical removal of the device. The
patient recovered well and had been follow-up for 2 years with no late complications reported.},
