In our case, there was a giant aneurysm of the left main coronary artery with fistulous communication to the right atrium, combined with moderate aortic valve regurgitation, which was initially found by transthoracic echocardiogram and subsequently confirmed by the 256-slice multidetector computer tomography (MDCT) coronary angiography. After consultation, the patient received surgical treatment, including the closure of the drainage and origin sites of the aneurysm and the aortic valve replacement. The patient recovered uneventfully. SN - 1749-8090 UR - https://doi.org/10.1186/s13019-015-0324-8 DO - 10.1186/s13019-015-0324-8 ID - Zhu2015 ER -
