Bicuspid 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 کاملRight sinus of Valsalva aneurysm causing extrinsic coronary compression.
Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is a rare cardiac disorder. It is more frequently a congenital, but it may also be an acquired condition. Takayasu's disease is an extremely rare cause of this disorder. Most cases of unruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm are asymptomatic. Compression of the left coronary artery is an unusual manifestation of the disease that can cause angina, myocardial infarction or...
متن کاملAneurysm of the sinus of Valsalva
A 47 year-old female of south Asian origin presented with acute pulmonary oedema. Her background included previous investigation for bilateral lung nodules (which remain of uncertain aetiology) and complete heart block leading to dual chamber permanent pacemaker implantation one year previously. A transthoracic echocardiogram identified an unruptured aneurysm of the right coronary sinus of Vals...
متن کاملCalcified Unruptured Aneurysm of the Left Sinus of Valsalva
Aneurysm of sinus of Valsalva is a rare anomaly which can be congenital or acquired. The right coronary sinus is the commonest site of aneurysm formation, with only a few cases reported to arise from the left coronary sinus. Although most patients with unruptured aneurysm of sinus of Valsalva are asymptomatic, fatal complications of unruptured aneurysms of sinus of Valsalva have been reported. ...
متن کاملUnruptured congenital aneurysm of the left sinus of Valsalva presenting as acute right ventricular failure.
A patient with unruptured congenital aneurysm of the left coronary sinus of Valsalva presented with acute right-sided heart failure due to right ventricular outflow tract obstruction. The mechanism for such an acute presentation may have been a sudden increase in the size of the aneurysm. The surgical importance of this lesion is the combined aortocameral approach which is seldom required for c...
