Abstract

This report describe a 69-year old woman with a congenital aneurysm of the non-coronary sinus of Valsalva ruptured in the right atrium, causing severe hemodynamic derangement of the right ventricle. The site of the communication between the aneurysm and the receiving chamber was accurately diagnosed by two-dimensional color flow Doppler imaging which provided more valuable preoperative information than conventional aortography.
