  • Title: Dissecting aneurysm of the interventricular septum due to rupture of the sinus of Valsalva.
    Author: Atiq M, Ali F, Hasan SB.
    Journal: Cardiol Young; 2017 Apr; 27(3):609-612. PubMed ID: 27873570.
    Abstract:
    Aneurysm of the sinus of Valsalva is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly. It occurs as an outpouching that progresses like a windsock, and it may rupture producing aortic regurgitation, cardiac tamponade, congestive heart failure, conduction abnormalities, and stroke. We describe a case of rupture of the sinus of Valsalva into the interventricular septum producing a large dissecting aneurysm. Despite the location, it did not produce a conduction abnormality.
