Abstract
The treatment for large congenital coronary cameral fistulas has been surgical but with advances in interventional catheterization techniques transcatheter embolization of these fistulas with coils or detachable balloons is now possible. This report describes occlusion of a congenital coronary arteriovenous fistula in a 6‐year‐old girl.Keywords
