Surgical closure of the fistula is indicated when symptoms emerge or as a preventive strategy, while surgical approaches depend on the individual anatomical structures. In particular, a CCF forming a “fistula lake” with multiple inflow vessels is so unique that few studies have focused on the technique to close it. We report the successful management of a CCF originating from multiple coronary arteries and draining into the left ventricle via a “fistula lake” by ligation and clipping of associated communication tracts. On the postoperative coronary computed tomography angiography, the fistula lake and the small vessels entering it had all disappeared.展开更多
