Abstract

Sinus of Valsalva aneurysms are relatively uncommon, and surgical repair is indicated at the time of diagnosis whether or not symptoms are present. This generally entails closure using a patch technique because usually only one sinus is involved. We report here the successful treatment of multiple sinus of Valsalva aneurysms using a David reimplantation valve-sparing root replacement.
