Abstract
Forty seven years old man, known diabetic, hypertensive and non smoker presented with gradually progressive shortness of breath NYHA class II for 2 years. He was found to have a grade 56 superficial, loud continuous murmur with harsh sawing character. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a ruptured aneurysm of the right aortic sinus with continuous flow into the right ventricular outflow tract. Catheterization study revealed an 8 mm defect in the right coronary sinus along with trivial aortic regurgitation. Transcatheter device closure of the ruptured sinus of Valsalva (RSOV) aneurysm was done using a 1210 Lifetech PDA device. The post procedure period was uneventful and he was discharged within 24 hours.
