Simultaneous transcatheter closure of ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm and stent implantation for aortic coarctation

摘要

Ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is a rare anomaly and an associated coarctation of aorta is even rarer. A combination of such defects is traditionally treated surgically. The surgery is necessarily staged and done through different approaches. We report successful simultaneous transcatheter treatment of both these defects performed in the same setting in an acutely ill adult male patient with a good intermediate-term follow-up.
