Ruptured coronary sinus aneurysm in pregnancy combined with cardiogenic shock and elevated V1 and aVR ST segments: Case report.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (SOVA), a rare cardiac malformation, is usually congenital and rarely acquired and most commonly occurring in the right coronary sinus. The clinical presentation of patients with SOVA varies. It is usually asymptomatic when it has not ruptured, and when it compresses neighboring structures or ruptures, it can lead to heart failure or shock, at which point urgent surgical intervention is usually required. Rupture of the sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (RSOVA) during pregnancy is really hard to come by, especially if the clinical presentations resemble that of an acute myocardial infarction. This report describes a pregnant woman with severe chest pain and hypotension with aVR and V1 ST-segment elevation due to RSOVA.
