Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Surgery
  • Medical Imaging
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Cardiac fistulas pose significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to anatomical variability.
  • Three-dimensional (3D) printing is emerging as a valuable tool for surgical planning and patient education.

Observation:

  • A case is presented of a female patient in her 60s with a fistula connecting the left ventricle, right atrium, and coronary sinus.
  • This condition developed two years post-bioprosthetic valve replacement.

Findings:

  • Three-dimensional modeling was utilized to gain a comprehensive understanding of the patient's cardiac anatomy.
  • This approach facilitated the optimization of the surgical strategy for fistula repair.

Implications:

  • Three-dimensional printing enhances patient care by providing tangible anatomical representations for preoperative planning.
  • This technology also serves as an effective educational tool for surgical trainees.
