Abstract:
Objective To discuss the diagnostic value of color Doppler echocardiography in small coronary-to-pulmonary fistula (SCPF) in children. Methods The clinical data of children who were diagnosed CPF by color Doppler echocardiography during 2011-2012 in my hospital were analyzed retrospectively. Results Seventeen cases with CAF including one diagnosed by forensic report and 8 cases diagnosed by AGA. Conclusion The results indicated that SCPF detection rate could be improved largely by observing spraying-up sign experienced in pulmonary artery diastolic combined with rich flow signal of coronary in color Doppler. In addition, it is valuable to diagnose children's SCPF by color Doppler echocardiography.
