Abstract
An individual with a ruptured congenital subvalvular aneurysm is presented. The anterior location in the mitral annulus compromised the intervalvular fibrosa shared by the aortic valve. Aortic and mitral valve replacement were required to obliterate the resulting fistula between the left ventricle and left atrium.
