Ruptured aneurysm of aortic sinus of Valsalva into right ventricle.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report a patient with ruptured aneurysm of the aortic sinus of Valsalva into the right ventricle, whose heart murmur represented only a diastolic element without aortic regurgitation. Surgery revealed a small opening through myocardium of the ventricular septum without ventricular septal defect. During systole, the opening was constricted and presumably closed with myocardial contraction, and left-to-right shunt might have occurred only in diastole. This might lead to only a diastolic murmur.

Aneurysms of sinus of Valsalva are rare cardiac abnormalities. They are dilatations of the aortic sinuses and are classified as congenital or acquired. If located in the right coronary sinus they are usually ruptured into right heart chambers and frequently a ventricular septal defect coexists with this condition. This paper reports a 30-year-old woman with ruptured aneurysm of the right sinus ...
متن کاملCASE REPORT Echocardiographic Diagnosis of Ruptured Aneurysm of Sinus of Valsalva Report of Two Cases
Echocardiographic features of two cases of ruptured congenital aneurysm of Valsalva sinus with (case I) and without (case 2) a supracristal ventricular septal defect were studied before and after surgery by standard echocardiography, M-mode scan and twodimensional echocardiography. Discontinuity was observed in the echo from the aneurysm wall of the Valsalva sinus in case I with ruptured aneury...
متن کاملAdult aortic coarctation discovered incidentally after the rupture of sinus of Valsalva aneurysm: combined surgical and interventional approach.
Combination of ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (SVA), and a coexisting asymptomatic adult aortic isthmic coarctation is extremely rare. The timing and sequence of surgical and/or interventional repair of these two pathologies are controversial. We present a case of a 37-year-old male who was admitted to our department because of severe acute congestive heart failure and signs of ruptured an...

BACKGROUND AND AIM OF THE STUDY Rupture of the sinus of Valsalva is rare, and there is a higher incidence of such rupture in Oriental countries than elsewhere. The objective of this study is to present the pathologic features and the clinical outcome after surgery in such patients. METHODS Between 1980 and 2001, a total of 17 patients (15 males and 2 females) with ruptured aneurysm of sinus o...
