Coronary artery anomalies occur in less than 1% of the general population. Multidetector computed tomography has emerged as the modality of choice in the diagnosis of these anomalies with the advent of multi-detector rows and 3D reconstruction. Delineation of the coronary anatomy and the extra cardiac abnormalities helps in institution of appropriate therapy. We report a case of coronary artery anomaly of termination which is an extra cardiac termination into bronchial arteries in which the conservative management of fistulae was instituted due to multiplicity of the fistulae.
