ABSTRACT

Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is a rare congenital or acquired aortic root anomaly. The aneurysm has the potential to compress the adjacent structures or rupture to other cardiac chambers with fatal consequences. Patients might be asymptomatic or present with nonspecific cardiac symptoms. Once the diagnosis is made, prompt surgical repair is generally required. Here, we present a young woman with frequent syncope who was found to have a giant sinus of Valsalva aneurysm as the underlying etiology.

ABSTRACT

Aberrant systemic artery to the lung without evidence of sequestration is a rare congenital anomaly. Treatment of choice for this anomaly is controversial. A 27-year-old man with bicuspid aortic valve (AV) and a history of AV replacement was admitted to our center with hemoptysis. Aberrant systemic artery to the lung without sequestration was diagnosed. Endovascular closure of aberrant vessel with septal occluder was performed. After 2 years the previous device was embolized to the distal part and he came back with hemoptysis. The second endovascular procedure was performed with a larger device with a successful result. There are surgical and interventional treatment options for systemic arterialization to a normal lung without sequestration. In this case we used Amplatzer septal occluder (St. Jude Medical, Minneapolis, MN, USA) for occlusion of the aberrant vessel. .
