    Abstract:
    A 24-year-old man with ruptured aneurysm of sinus of Valsalva into the right atrium originating from the noncoronary sinus is presented. On aortography through the ascending aorta the right atrium in systolic phase and the right ventricle in diastolic phase were opacified. We considered ruptured aneurysm like a streamer (wind sock) entered into the right ventricle in diastolic phase and into the right atrium in systolic phase. Post-aneurysmectomy course was uneventful, and radiographic examination revealed complete repair of the aneurysm.
