Abstract

Mini‐AbstractAorto‐right atrial fistula (A‐RAF) is a rare condition that has been reported as a postsurgical complication following cardiac surgery. Diagnosing A‐RAF can be challenging, and requires a high index of suspicion. In our patient, following surgical myectomy for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, aortic dissection occurred at the aortotomy site that was then contained by postsurgical adhesions, leading to formation of A‐RAF.
