摘要
A 3-year-old boy presented to the emergency department with vomiting and abdominal pain. Point-of-care ultrasound identified a sinus of Valsalva aneurysm. We describe a case where point-of-care ultrasound was used to evaluate a child who presented with nonspecific abdominal pain leading to the diagnosis of this rare cardiac condition and life-saving surgical treatment.
