Very late recurrence of sinus of Valsalva aneurysm rupture after patch repair

چکیده
BACKGROUND Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (SVA) is an uncommon cardiac defect accounting for only 1% of congenital cardiac anomalies and the most common complication is ruptured into the atrium or ventricle. Very late recurrence of ruptured SVA after patch repair is extremely rare. CASE PRESENTATION We present a case of 57-year-old man had received repair for ruptured Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm at 19 ages. In the clinics, he presented with exertional dyspnea and leg swelling. The serial examination disclosed he had bicuspid aortic valve and very late rupture of SVA connecting to right atrium. After surgical repair again, he was discharged smoothly. CONCLUSION A very late recurrence of ruptured SVA after surgical repair was rare. We reported a case with unique echocardiographic presentation and a successful repair.

Repair of ruptured sinus of valsalva aneurysm: determinants of long-term survival.
BACKGROUND Ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is a rare cardiac anomaly and long-term survival after surgical treatment is not well established. This study was designed to investigate the determinants of long-term survival after repair of ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm. METHODS From April 1978 to April 1996, 53 patients underwent operation for ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm. The in...

A 65-year-old male was referred to our team after the incidental finding of a large non-coronary sinus of Valsalva aneurysm on computed tomography (CT)-scan of the thorax. Further imaging with transesophageal echocardiography (TOE) excluded intracardiac shunting. Unusually, the aneurysm had ruptured into the interatrial septum and was seen to be compressing both atria. At operative intervention...

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...

Sinus of valsalva aneurysm, is a rare congenital defect and the diagnosis is usually made after it ruptures. The anomaly often involves the right coronary sinus and is less frequent in the noncoronary sinus. The rupture of the left sinus of valsalva into the pulmonary artery is extremely rare. So far, few cases with ruptured left sinus of valsalva have been reported. We are reporting a ruptur...

OBJECTIVE We introduce a simple classification of the non-coronary sinus of Valsalva aneurysm, and suggest a different approach for the corresponding type of non-coronary sinus of Valsalva aneurysm. METHODS Between October 1996 and December 2009, 45 patients with non-coronary sinus of Valsalva aneurysm underwent surgical repair. Twenty-three were male and 22 female. The mean age was 32.80±11....
