Core Tip	Pulmonary artery-to-left atrium fistula is a variant of pulmonary arteriovenous fistula and is a developmental anomaly. Left pulmonary artery-to-left atrium fistula is rare. We report the case of a 40-year-old male who presented with effort intolerance, central cyanosis, and recurrent seizures. He had a large and highly tortuous left pulmonary artery-to-left atrium fistula associated with a large aneurysmal sac in the course. Catheter-based closure was performed using a vascular plug.
