Percutaneous device closure of ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm in an adult male
Abstract
Forty seven years old man, known diabetic,
hypertensive and non smoker presented
with gradually progressive shortness
of breath NYHA class II for 2 years.
He was found to have a grade 56 superficial,
loud continuous murmur with harsh
sawing character. Transthoracic echocardiography
revealed a ruptured aneurysm
of the right aortic sinus with continuous
flow into the right ventricular outflow
tract. Catheterization study revealed
an 8 mm defect in the right coronary sinus
along with trivial aortic regurgitation.
Transcatheter device closure of the ruptured
sinus of Valsalva (RSOV) aneurysm
was done using a 1210 Lifetech
PDA device. The post procedure period
was uneventful and he was discharged
within 24 hours.
