Abstract

Cardiovascular imaging has an important role in the assessment and management of aortic root and thoracic aorta ectasia and aneurysms. Sinus of Valsalva aneurysms are rare entities. Unique complications associated with sinus of Valsalva aneurysms make them different from traditional aortic root aneurysms. Established guidelines on the diagnosis and management of sinus of Valsalva aneurysms are lacking. This article reviews the applications of multimodality cardiovascular imaging (echocardiography, cardiac computed tomography, and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging) for the dedicated assessment and imaging-guided management of sinus of Valsalva aneurysms.
