Abstract:
Here we report an infant with coronary artery fistulas. To clearly visualise the fistulas and surrounding materials, we utilised three-dimensional computed tomography, and the images were transferred as novel visualised three-dimensional images using a reconstruction technique. With the images, we could repair the fistulas accurately. We believe that these images are useful for repairing coronary artery fistulas in infants.
