발살바동 동맥류 파열의 외과적 치료 = Surgical Treatment of Ruptured Aneurysm of the Sinus Valsalva

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Over the past 8 years, from 1985 to 1992, 6 patients with ruptured aneurysm of the sinus of Valsalva underwent open heart surgery in the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Chungnam National University Hospital. Five aneurysms originated from the right coronary sinus and ruptured into right ventricle and one from noncoronary sinus into RA. Ventricular septal defects were associated with 5 cases and one had no associated cardiac anomalies. The ruptured aneurysms were repaired through double incisions in 3 cases, through aortotomy in 2 cases and through right atriotomy in 1 case. There were no early and late complications and follow up results are excellent in all patients.
