A rare case of left coronary artery--pulmonary artery fistula is reported. Transoesophageal echocardiography was capable of precisely demonstrating the origin, the course and the drainage site of the fistula. In contrast, transthoracic echocardiography could visualise a drainage flow in the pulmonary artery only. In conclusion, transoesophageal echocardiography may be helpful in the diagnosis or exclusion of the form of coronary artery fistula.
