Journal of Cardiac Surgery

Abstract

Aneurysms of sinus of Valsalva are rare. Here, we analyze retrospectively patients operated on at our center during the last 20 years. One hundred four cases of congential aneurysm of sinus of Valsalva were operated upon between January 1977 and April 1996. Only 12 aneurysms were unruptured. The majority (76.9%) arose from the right coronary sinus. The right ventricle was the most common chamber of rupture (58.6%). Ventricular septal defect was associated in 46 patients (44.2%), of which 28 (60.9%) were supracristal. Ventricular septal defect was more common in aneurysms arising from the right coronary sinus (91.3%). Aortic incompetence was found in 45 patients (43.3%). The defect was closed through the aortic root alone in 24 patients (23.1%) and through both the aortic root and the chamber of rupture in the remaining 80 patients. Six patients underwent aortic valve repair, and 21 an aortic valve replacement. There were two hospital deaths (1.92%). Morbidities were few. Follow-up ranged from 1 to 20 years (mean 8.2 +/- 1.1). There was one late noncardiac death, and in the majority, the long-term follow-up was uneventful. Surgery for aneurysm of sinus of Valsalva yields gratifying results, and it should be undertaken as soon as...Continue Reading

Aortic Aneurysm

An aortic aneurysm is the weakening and bulging of the blood vessel wall in the aorta. This causes dilatation of the aorta, which is usually asymptomatic but carries the risk of rupture and hemorrhage. Find the latest research on aortic aneurysms here.

Aneurysm

Aneurysms are outward distensions or bulges that occurs in a weakened wall of blood vessels. Discover the latest research on aneurysms here.

Cardiac Aneurysm

Aneurysm refers to a bulge of the wall or lining of a vessel commonly occurring in the blood vessels at the base of the septum or within the aorta. In the heart, it usually arises from a patch of weakened tissue in a ventricular wall, which swells into a bubble filled with blood. Discover the latest research on cardiac aneurysm here.
