“…He underwent successful repair of the SOVA with a Dacron graft patch closure and preservation of the aortic root. Aortic valve sparing surgery has been shown to have excellent outcomes and prevent the need for long‐term anticoagulation and other complicating factors …”

“…Finally, cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) was performed, which confirmed dilation of all 3 sinuses, with dimensions measuring 4.1 cm at the RCC, 4.3 cm at the left coronary cusp (LCC), and 5.6 cm at the noncoronary cusp (NCC) (Figure ). As valve‐sparing surgery has been noted to demonstrate excellent outcomes, she was offered a valve‐sparing aortic root replacement and is currently pending surgical intervention.…”

Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (SOVA), a congenital or acquired cardiac defect that is present in roughly 0.09% of the general population, often presents as an incidental finding during cardiac imaging. Although an echocardiogram is the standard imaging technique for such findings, cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) has been increasingly utilized. If SOVA is diagnosed, CCTA is also a useful test for patients who are at low to intermediate risk for coronary artery disease (CAD) prior to surgical repair. CCTA can accurately rule out CAD, obviating the need for invasive angiography in most cases, which may be more risky in SOVA patients because their coronaries may be more difficult to engage and their aortic root may be more prone to injury. Although surgery has previously been the treatment of choice, transcatheter techniques have added to the spectrum of nonsurgical alternatives for repair. We report here 4 incidental SOVA cases and review the current literature.

“…Few papers summarize multicentre data. Traditionally, open heart surgery has been a method of choice (8,17,18). If the aortic valve is intact and aortic regurgitation is insignificant, it is relevant to perform a valve-sparing surgery to avoid long-term anticoagulation and prosthetic valve-related complications (18).…”

Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is an uncommon finding. The present paper describes a case report of a 57-year-old female patient who developed angina pectoris due to the left sinus of Valsalva aneurysm. Clinical presentation, localization, unruptured status and concomitant coarctation of the aorta make the case presented in this document extremely rare and interesting. Current knowledge about the disease is briefly discussed.

“…The reimplantation technique has shown to be adequate to preserve aortic valve function at mid and long‐term follow‐up in patients with aortic root aneurysms . Recently, David et al reported the results of 371 patients who underwent aortic valve sparing surgery from 1988 to 2010.…”
