Dual ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysms.

Ruptured sinus of Valsalva (RSOV) aneurysm is a rare anomaly accounting for around 0.14-3.5% in patients undergoing open cardiac surgeries. We report a rare case of an 18-year-old male with dual RSOV aneurysms who was managed successfully by patch closure via the transaortic approach and which to our knowledge has never been reported ("PubMed" and "Google Scholar" as the search engine with dual, ruptured, sinus of Valsalva aneurysm as the MeSH words). Dual RSOV aneurysm in a single patient is an extremely rare condition which can lead to early cardiogenic shock and should be managed surgically at the earliest.
