Abstract

Over the past 3.5 years, 5 cases with ruptured sinus of Valsalva were operated upon at Asan Medical Center. Four patients were congenital and 1 traumatic. Coexistent lesions included 2 subarterial VSD, 3 AR requiring procedures [2 AVR, 1 valvoplasty], 2 subaortic membranes, 1 PDA,and 1 bicuspid AV. The communication is noncoronary sinus to RA in I and fight Coronary sinus to RV in the other 4 patients. The ~rstula was repaired through the aorta whenever possible and reinforced through the right sided chamber. There are no surgical mortality and, no recurrence of rupture yet.
