    Abstract:
    A 75-year-old man with gastric cancer underwent preoperative cardiac examination by echocardiography, and an unruptured extracardiac aneurysm was detected in the right sinus of Valsalva. Coronary angiography by multidetector computed tomography demonstrated a single left coronary artery. Patch closure of the orifice of the aneurysm of the right sinus of Valsalva was successfully performed for this extremely rare combination.
