==[[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva pathophysiology|Pathophysiology]]==


==Overview==
==[[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva epidemiology and demographics|Epidemiology and demographics]]==


''''[[Aneurysm]] of the [[aortic sinus]]'''', also known as the [[sinus of Valsalva]], is comparatively rare, occurring in about one person in every thousand. 
==[[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva natural history|Natural history, Complications, and Prognosis]]==


When present, it is usually in either the right (65-85%) or in the noncoronary (10-30%) sinus, rarely in the left (< 5%) sinus.  This type of aneurysm is typically [[birth defects|congenital]] and may be associated with [[heart defects]]
==[[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva causes|Causes]]==


It is sometimes associated with [[Marfan syndrome]] or [[Loeys-Dietz syndrome]], but may also result from [[Ehlers-Danlos syndrome]], [[atherosclerosis]], [[syphilis]], [[cystic medial necrosis]], chest injury, or [[infective endocarditis]].
==[[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva differential diagnosis|Differentiating Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva from other Disorders]]==


If unruptured, this type aneurysm may be asymptomatic and therefore go undetected until symptoms appear or [[medical imaging]] is performed for other reasons. 
==Diagnosis==
[[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva history and symptoms|History and Symptoms]] | [[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva physical examination|Physical Examination]] | [[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva laboratory tests|Laboratory Tests]] | [[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva electrocardiogram | Electrocardiogram]] | [[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva chest x ray|Chest X Ray]] | [[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva MRI|MRI]] | [[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva CT|CT]] | [[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva echocardiography|Echocardiography]] | [[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva other imaging findings|Other Imaging Findings]] | [[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva other diagnostic studies|Other Diagnostic Studies]]


==Treatment==
==Treatment==
'''Medical:''' [[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva medical therapy|Medical Therapy]]


Medical therapy of [[aneurysm]] of the [[aortic sinus]] includes [[blood pressure]] control through the use of drugs, such as [[beta blockers]]. The definitive treatment is surgical repair. 
'''Surgical:''' [[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva surgery|Surgery]]


The determination to perform surgery is usually based upon the diameter of the aortic root and the rate of increase in its size, as determined through repeated [[echocardiography]].
[[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva primary prevention|Primary Prevention]] | [[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva secondary prevention|Secondary Prevention]] | [[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva cost-effectiveness of therapy|Cost-Effectiveness of Therapy]] | [[Aneurysm of sinus of valsalva future or investigational therapies|Future or Investigational Therapies]]
