The Right

The sinus of valsalva aneurysm (SVA) is a small dilatation caused by a separation between the aortic media and annulus fibrosus. It may be either acquired or congenital. The right coronary sinus is most frequently affected, with the most common complication being rupture of the sinus. Cardiac failure and sudden auscultation changes suggest the possibility of SVA rupture. Echocardiography is sufficient to diagnose SVA, its complications, repercussions and to determine surgical options. SVA, even if asymptomatic, has potential risks of expansion, rupture, cardiac failure, endocarditis, embolism and sudden death. This justifies surgical correction which has a low mortality rate in both the short and long-term.Bangladesh Med J. 2015 Sep; 44 (3): 175-177

New Onset

Congenital sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is a rare disorder, mostly involving the right and noncoronary sinuses, in which intracardiac rupture is more likely foreseen into the right chambers. Because of the unfavorable prognosis, which includes heart failure and sudden death, detection itself is an indication for treatment, which may be performed either surgically or percutaneously. We present a case of a four-year-old patient with aorto-right atrial tunnel, in which a transcatheter attempt of closure was performed, complicated by new onset of aortic valve regurgitation, requiring surgical intervention.

High Index Of Suspicion

Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm rupture is a rare condition with a great potential for morbidity and mortality if not promptly diagnosed and managed. We present an unusual non-infected sinus of Valsalva aneurysm rupture in a 47-year-old female. This case report, a likely presentation of a late congenital heart defect, highlights the need for a high index of suspicion in a patient with atypical history of congestive cardiac failure.
