Completely asymptomatic sinus of Valsalva aneurysms are rare entities, and there is no consensus regarding their management. We present the case of a patient who underwent atrial septal defect device closure at 5 years of age and was lost to follow-up, then presented 6 years later with unruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm and was closely followed. The aneurysm eventually ruptured and was successfully operated on with good outcomes.
完全无症状的瓦氏窦瘤非常罕见,对于其治疗尚无共识。我们报告一例患者,该患者5岁时接受房间隔缺损封堵术,之后失访,6年后因未破裂的瓦氏窦瘤前来就诊并接受密切随访。该动脉瘤最终破裂,并成功接受手术,预后良好。
