  • Title: Ruptured sinus of valsalva: unexpected finding in a patient diagnosed with ventricular septal defect with aortic regurgitation.
    Author: Aggarwal SK, Sai V, Iyer VR.
    Journal: Pediatr Cardiol; 2008 Mar; 29(2):473-4. PubMed ID: 17899241.
    Abstract:
    Ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is an uncommon condition which has a good prognosis if surgically corrected. However, sometimes making the diagnosis on echocardiography and even cardiac catheterization can be difficult. We describe a case which was diagnosed as ventricular septal defect with aortic regurgitation but, on the table, was found to be a ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm.
