Angiographic features of ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm: New classification

Abstract: According to the shape of left to right shunt jet, we propose a new and simple classification for RSVA. It could help toward the better understanding of angiographic morphology of RSVA and facilitate the selection of occluders for percutaneous closure.

“…9 Another system of angiographic classification uses the shape of the left-to-right shunt jet in order to facilitate the selection of occluders for percutaneous closure. 10 The four types of shunt jets identified are: type I, window-like; type II, aneurysmal; type III, tubular; and type IV, other rare conditions.10 Our patient is under type III (according to anatomy) & type II ( according to angiography). Echocardiography is the gold standard for the diagnosis of RSOV and the identification of other co-existing congenital anomalies.…”

“…It is a relatively effective and safe therapy to close the opening of the RSVA without VSD using a transcatheter in a few patients 6. The points and shape of RSVA should be evaluated appropriately before the operation method is chosen 16. The bulging range and the opening of the sinus aneurysm in most patients are large and not suitable for intervention methods.…”

“…Except one, none of these classifications addresses the issue of risk stratification for rupture and appropriate timing for surgery. [10][11][12][13][14][15] The latter issue is of particular importance in infants in whom the outcome of aortic valve and aortic root replacement may not be as promis- It is speculated that association of AAA, inheritable connective tissue disorders, small patient size, rapid rate of expansion of the SOVA and/or AAA, and the severity of the aortic valve abnormality affect timing and prognosis of surgery. 16 In conclusion, we reported the first case of congenital SOVA of noncoronary sinus associated with ascending aortic aneurysm in an infant with quadricuspid aortic valve and genetic leukoencephalopathy.…”
