摘要
A 54-year-old male who experienced a syncopal episode underwent aortic valve replacement for aortic stenosis and regurgitation. The aortic valve was incompetent as a result of thickening of the left coronary cusp and non-coronary cusp. In addition a saccular aneurysm was indicated on the left coronary cusp. A shelf of tissue protruding at right angles from the ventricular septum was particularly prominent below the right coronary cusp, resulting in subvalvular stenosis. The cause of the saccular aneurysm was most likely caused by the long-term effects of the jet stream instigated by discrete subaortic stenosis.
