Rare Cardiac Emergency Followed By a Remarkable Outcome
A rare, life-threatening cardiac emergency involving a ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm was successfully managed through timely and precise surgical intervention, restoring normal cardiac function and ensuring a safe recovery
The Challenge: Initial Presentation
A patient presented with a ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm opening into the right atrium- a rare condition causing sudden cardiac overload, instability, and imminent risk of death.
Immediate intervention was critical to survival
The Approach: Clinical Assessment
A high-risk open-heart surgical strategy was planned to repair the rupture and restore normal cardiac function.
The approach required:
- Rapid decision-making
- Multidisciplinary coordination
- Strict adherence to global cardiac care protocols
Diagnostic Imaging & Early Diagnosis
Advanced cardiac imaging and detailed diagnostic evaluation enabled:
- Clear identification of the rupture
- Precise surgical planning
- Reduced intraoperative risk
The Solution: Intervention & Treatment
The cardiac team successfully performed open-heart surgery under the leadership of Dr. Apurba Kumar Sarma, supported by:
- Expert intraoperative monitoring
- High-precision surgical techniques
- International-standard cardiac protocols
The Outcome: Recovery & Stabilisation
A Life Restored, A Heart Stabilised
- Rupture successfully repaired
- Hemodynamic stability restored
- Cardiac function normalised
- Recovery safe, steady, and complication-free
