An experience with the management of 27 cases of ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is reported from the Bakulev Institute of Cardiovascular Surgery, Moscow. The right coronary sinus was involved in 23 cases and the noncoronary sinus in four cases. Rupture into the right ventricle occurred in 19 cases, whereas eight ruptures entered the right atrium. Twelve patients had a ventricular defect, and 10 patients had aortic regurgitation, requiring leaflet suspension in five patients or valve replacement in five patients.
