Ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm developed forty years after aortic valve replacement by Starr-Edwards mechanical valve
Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is a rare anomaly, most often caused by a congenital absence of muscular and elastic tissue in the aortic wall of the sinus of Valsalva. It was first described in 1938. The incidence is higher in eastern than western populations. Various surgical repair techniques have been reported with good results. In this case, a 61 years old man, with history of aortic valve repl...
متن کاملRuptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm association with bicuspid aortic valve
Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (SVA) is a rare cardiac anomaly and comprises less than 1% of congenital cardiac defects. It can be congenital or acquired. Echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging are noninvasive imaging procedures primarily used for diagnosis. A 47-year-old patient with a history of asthma was admitted through the emergency department which dyspnoea that had started ...
متن کاملBicuspid Aortic Valve: An Unusual Cause of Aneurysm of Left Coronary Sinus of Valsalva
Bicuspid aortic valve is traditionally considered an innocuous congenital anomaly. Due to a better and widespread availability of non-invasive imaging techniques, it has come to the fore that 30% of these cases develop complications, viz., valve abnormality (aortic regurgitation and stenosis), and aneurysm of aortic root and ascending aorta. Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is an uncommon complicatio...
متن کاملruptured sinus of valsalva aneurysm accompanied by aortic and tricuspid valve endocarditis: a case report
a ruptured sinus of valsalva aneurysm rarely accompanies the aortic and tricuspid valve endocarditis. a 36-year-old woman presented with low-threshold dyspnea on exertion and fever. transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography showed a ruptured noncoronary sinus of valsalva aneurysm with large vegetations on the tricuspid and aortic valves, resulting in moderately severe tricuspid regurgi...
متن کاملReplacement of an aortic Starr-Edwards ball valve prosthesis 28 years after implantation.
A 53-year-old woman who had undergone aortic valve replacement with a Starr-Edwards (S-E) valve (Model 1260) and open mitral commissurotomy 28 years previously was hospitalized with cardiac failure. Echocardiography showed mitral stenosis, mitral regurgitation, and a normally functioning S-E prosthesis. At reoperation, the mitral and aortic valves were replaced with St Jude bileaflet mechanical...
