Objective To formulate an individualized evidence-based treatment for a first-diagnosed patient with coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula. Methods Aiming at the issue of whether interventional operation was necessary for first-diagnosed coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula or not, the computer retrieval was conducted in the US National Guideline Clearinghouse, The Cochrane Library, PubMed and MEDLINE from 1990 to 2011, to collect and assess the best evidence of relevant systematic reviews, randomized controlled trials, controlled clinical trials and treatment guidelines, in order to be applied in clinical treatment. Results There were 1 clinical guideline for treating coronary artery fistula and 3 different high-quality evidence studies were retrieved. The results showed percutaneous coronary intervention was the best treatment currently. According to the obtained evidence and patient’s willingness, the relevant examinations were taken, and the preoperative preparation for percutaneous coronary intervention was done actively after the patient was admitted. Three days after hospitalization, the selective coronary angiography showed right coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula and left coronary circumflexus artery-left atrial multiple fistulae, then the percutaneous coronary intervention spring coil embolization was successfully conducted for right coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula. After operation, bayasprin enteric-coated tablets 0.1 g/d was taken for anti-platelet aggregation and preventing thrombotic diseases. The observation during operation and postoperative 5-day hospitalization showed no relevant complications. Conclusion Percutaneous coronary intervention is safe and effective for the symptomatic patients with coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula.
