A 19-month-old girl with trisomy 21 and a congenitally bicuspid aortic valve died following a short febrile illness. Autopsy disclosed pericarditis, epimyocardial abscess, infective endocarditis, and a sinus of Valsalva aneurysm. Microscopy demonstrated continuity between the aortic wall and valve leaflet, consistent with an acquired aneurysm. Abnormal hemodynamics associated with the valve malformation likely facilitated endocarditis.

Background: We retrospectively analyzed 65 patients who underwent surgical repair of sinus of Valsalva aneurysm over the last 27 years. Methods: From January 1, 1988, to October 1, 2015, a total of 65 patients with sinus of Valsalva aneurysm underwent surgical repair in our hospital. There were 41 males (63%) and 24 females (37%), and their age ranged from 5 to 50 years (mean 23 ± 10 years, median 21 years). Out of the 65 patients, 45 (69%) had ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm, 46 (70%) had a ventricular septal defect, and 22 (34%) had aortic valve insufficiency. The ruptured sinus of Valsalva was repaired with patch in 12 cases and direct suturing in 33 cases. The aortic valve was replaced in five patients and the aortic root was replaced in five patients. Results: Sixty patients (92%) survived the 30-day operative interval. At one year follow-up, only two patients had complications: infective endocarditis and sepsis, which lead to septic shock (n = 1) and paraprosthetic leakage and mitral valve regurgitation (n = 1). All the other patients were well and in New York Heart Association functional class I or II. Conclusion: In this relatively high-risk population, repair of SVA can be achieved with satisfactory early results.

Sinus of Valsalva Aneurysm is a rare anomaly of the cardiovascular system. It may be acquired or congenital and may also be associated with another cardiac lesion. Acute onset of dyspnea is experienced when the aneurysm ruptures. Diagnosis is reached by echocardiography and Cardiac MRI. The treatment is surgical repair. This paper presents the case of a 24-year old male with acute onset of symptoms caused by a ruptured sinus of Valsalva Aneurysm.
