Giant coronary artery aneurysm with fistula formation is a rare entity. We report a giant coronary artery aneurysm with a maximum diameter of 70 mm with fistula, in which a favorable course was obtained after surgical treatment. We also review the literature on giant coronary artery aneurysms exceeding 50 mm in maximum diameter.
