Abstract:
Pulmonary artery to the left atrial fistula is a rare anomaly. Two young males presented with effort intolerance and cyanosis and had large pulmonary artery to left atrial fistula from right and left pulmonary artery, respectively. The right-sided fistula was closed with a large duct occluder device in transseptal approach whereas the left-sided fistula was closed with a large muscular ventricular septal device. Complete occlusion and symptomatic relief was achieved in both cases. In the follow up the patients were doing well.
