Abstract
Pulmonary sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is an extremely rare entity, reported only twice in the literature. It can remain asymptomatic or can present with symptoms when associated with pulmonary artery aneurysms. We present a case of pulmonary sinus of Valsalva aneurysm causing severe right ventricular outflow tract obstruction. This report aims to alert the physicians of such an entity when evaluating the causes of subvalvar right ventricular outflow tract obstruction.
