Recurrent angina pectoris developed in a 59-year-old man 3 years after
coronary artery bypass grafting using the left internal mammary artery.
Cardiac catheterization showed a fistula between the left internal mammary
artery and the pulmonary vasculature. This is an unusual documented case of
postoperative internal mammary artery graft to pulmonary vasculature
fistula after coronary artery bypass grafting. Division of this fistulous
communication resulted in resolution of the patient's angina.
