Sinus of Valsalva Aneurysm Dissecting into Interventricular Septum Compressing RVOT

Abstract

Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva is a rare disorder. Rupture of sinus of valsalva into the right atria, right ventricle and the left ventricle is more commonly seen. Dissection of sinus of valsalve into the interventricular septum is rare, moreover right ventricular outflow tract obstruction due to it is still rarer. We present a case of ruptured sinus of valsalva aneurysm into the interventricular septum causing right ventricular outflow tract obstruction presenting with heart block.
