Ruptured Coronary Sinus of Valsalva in the Setting of a Supracristal Ventricular Septal Defect

A sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (SOVA) is usually a silent entity until one of its complications arises, such as heart failure. SOVA itself is uncommon, but it is more frequently associated with a supracristal ventricular septal defect (SVSD). We present a 67-year-old man with a history of an asymptoma...

description A sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (SOVA) is usually a silent entity until one of its complications arises, such as heart failure. SOVA itself is uncommon, but it is more frequently associated with a supracristal ventricular septal defect (SVSD). We present a 67-year-old man with a history of an asymptomatic SVSD who presented to the emergency department with signs and symptoms of heart failure. He was subsequently found to have a ruptured SOVA and underwent urgent surgical repair.
