A case of bilateral internal mammary artery-to-pulmonary artery fistulas
presenting as recurrent angina late after revascularization is described.
Objective evidence of ischemia was documented using stress
electrocardiography and thallium-201 scintigraphy. The patient was managed
conservatively to date with medical therapy. Fistula formation may
complicate internal mammary artery bypass grafting and should be considered
as a potential cause of recurrent angina.
