angiography 24 and 36 months, respectively, after operation; in each, the right and
LC arteries were much smaller than they had been preoperatively and the collateral
vessels between the right coronary artery and LC and the LAD had disappeared;
patient 7 had persistent angina postoperatively and the distal portions of both the
right coronary artery and LC (36 months postoperatively) were quite narrowed; the
cause of narrowing was unclear. Left ventricular angiograms, performed in 4 adults,
were normal in 2 (patients 2 and 4), and in the other 2 the apical portion of the left
ventricle was akinetic in 1 (patient 6) and aneurysmal in 1 (patient 7). Repeat left
ventricular angiography in these latter 2 patients disclosed better overall contractions in 1 and no change in 1 (patient 7).
The presence of both subjective and objective evidence of myocardial ischemia
in the 6 previously reported adults and the disappearance of angina and of the collateral vessels between the 2 coronary arteries arising from the aorta and the LAD
arising from the PT supports the view that operative treatment is proper for patients
with this coronary anomaly. Whether LAD ligation alone is enough or whether ligation plus insertion of a graft between the aorta and LAD is preferable is unclear.
Direct connection of the LAD to aorta in this situation appears technically inadvisable. All 4 patients reported in whom operation was performed had angina pectoris.
Our patient was asymptomatic preoperatively. Obviously, no data are available on
the advisibility of operation in an asymptomatic person in whom the LAD arises
from the PT, but it appears reasonable to believe that the operative therapy in this
circumstance is proper. If operation is to be performed, however, clear identication
of the anomalous artery before ligation is mandatory.

Case 617 Asymptomatic Sinus of Valsalva
Aneurysm Causing Right Ventricular Outflow
Obstruction Before and After Rupture
Carole A. Warnes, MB, BS, MRCP, Barry J. Maron, MD,
Michael Jones, MD and William C. Roberts, MD
Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (SVA) unassociated with ventricular septal defect does
not produce symptoms of cardiac dysfunction until the wall of the SVA ruptures
or the aneurysm itself obstructs right ventricular (RV) outow. If rupture occurs,
usually symptoms appear abruptly and congestive heart failure progresses rapidly
thereafter. Obstruction to RV outow by bulging of the SVA into the RV outow
tract has been demonstrated hemodynamically in only 2, or possibly 3, patients.
The patient described herein is unique because the degree of RV outow tract
obstruction by a SVA was observed to increase with time and symptoms of cardiac
dysfunction never occurred despite rupture of the wall of the SVA.
G.P. (#16-40-13-6), a 23-year-old man, had a precordial murmur detected at age 6 weeks.
At age 13years, a grade 4/6 systolic murmur was audible along the left sternal border. At
age 16years, the rst cardiac catheterization was performed, and RV outow obstruction
was observed (Figure 1). An aortogram showed aneurysm of the right sinus of Valsalva. The
patient remained asymptomatic and worked outdoors in construction. At age 22years, the
presence of the precordial murmur prompted a second cardiac catheterization. RV oxygen
content had increased, and the aortogram showed a perforation in the wall of the aneurysm.
Five months later, a third catheterization revealed a Qp:Qs ratio of 2.6:1 by Krypton and
3.3:1 by oximetry. Aortogram (Figure 2) conrmed the aortico-RV shunt through the ruptured SVA. Electrocardiogram was compatible with left ventricular hypertrophy. The total
QRS voltage in all 12 leads was 376mm (10mm=1mV). M-mode and 2-D echocardiograms
(Figure 2) showed discontinuity between the anterior wall of the aorta and the ventricular
septum. In May1983 the wall of the sinus of Valsalva aneurysm was excised (Figure 1) and
aortic valvuloplasty was performed. Six months later, the patient was asymptomatic, and
catheterization showed that the RV outow obstruction had been abolished. He had no leftto-right shunt, but he did have signicant regurgitation from the aorta into the left ventricle,
a nding not present preoperatively. Total 12-lead QRS voltage 6 months after operation was
379mm.

Although Sakakibara and Konno
patients in whom 1 or more sinuses of Valsalva protruded into the RV outow tract,
actual obstruction to RV outow was unconrmed because none of the 7 patients
had cardiac catheterization, or if performed, the data were not presented. It appears
that the 3 patients reported by Bulkley et al had syphilis. Only 2 patients (possibly 3)
with hemodynamically documented RV outow obstruction associated with aneurysm of 1 of the 3 sinuses, as occurred in our patient, have been reported. Gerbode et

in having hemodynamic documentation of progression of RV outow obstruction
by the SVA in the RV outow tract, hemodynamic proof of elimination of the gradient after excision of the aneurysm, and no symptoms of cardiac dysfunction despite
rupture of the wall of the SVA. The lack of symptoms probably was a result of the
small size of the perforation in the aneurysm’s wall.

role in the stillbirth is uncertain. In both of these previously described patients, the
anomalously arising right coronary artery coursed between aorta posteriorly and
the pulmonary trunk anteriorly.
J.G., a 65-year-old man, never had signs or symptoms of cardiac dysfunction. He did

present. The origin and courses of the coronary arteries are shown in Figure1. The anomalous right coronary artery was much smaller than either the left circumex or left anterior
descending branches; it burrowed into the myocardium of the crista supraventricularis for
about 2cm of its length shortly after its origin from the LM. All epicardial coronary arteries

Case 642 Mitral Valve Cleft Without
Cardiac Septal Defect Causing Severe Mitral
Regurgitation but Allowing Long Survival
Charles W. Barth, III, MD, James D. Dibdin, MD,
LLB and William C. Roberts, MD
Partial atrioventricular “defect” includes a spectrum of 5 anatomic anomalies. Some
patients have all 5 and others have only 1 or 2. The 5 are the following: (1) defect in the
lower portion of the atrial septum, so-called primum atrial septal defect; (2)defect
in, or absence of, the posterobasal portion of ventricular septum; (3) cleft, anterior
mitral leaet; (4) anomalous chordae tendineae from the anterior mitral leaet to
the crest of the ventricular septum; and (5) partial or complete absence of the septal
tricuspid valve leaet. There are at least 4 potential functional consequences of these
5 anatomic anomalies: (1) shunt at the atrial level, (2) shunt at the ventricular level,
(3) mitral regurgitation (MR), and (4) obstruction to left ventricular outow. Well
over 95% of patients with partial atrioventricular defect have a primum type atrial
septal defect, and most of those without a primum defect have a shunt at the ventricular level. The occurrence of MRfrom a cleft in the anterior mitral leaet unassociated with a defect in either atrial or ventricular septa is extremely rare. Such was
the case, however, in the patient to be described herein.
B.P., a 27-year-old man, was found to have a precordial murmur consistent with MRat
age 16years. Atrial brillation was also present. Left ventricular angiogram at the time
showed 2+/4+ MR. He continued to play recreational basketball and work as a service station attendant without difculty. At age 27, ve months before death, he had a respiratory
infection followed by evidence of congestive heart failure. Agrade 4/6 holosystolic murmur
consistent with MRand a third heart sound were heard. M-mode echocardiogram showed
thickened but mobile mitral leaets; the left atrial dimension was 70mm, and the left ventricular cavity was 82mm in diastole and 58mm in systole. The electrocardiogram showed
atrial brillation, QRS voltage of left ventricular hypertrophy and inverted T waves in leads
II, III and aVF. The pressures in mm Hg were as follows: pulmonary artery wedge mean 15,
v wave 16; pulmonary artery 28/14 (mean 18); right ventricle 28/5; right atrial mean 5; left
ventricle 120/8; and aorta 120/80 (mean 90). Cardiac index (thermodilution) was 2.3 liters/
2
. Left ventricular angiography now disclosed 4+/4+ MR. After discharge he returned
min/m
to an active life. He died suddenly from an overdose of cocaine and phencyclidine.
At necropsy the heart weighed 900 g. All 4 cardiac chambers were dilated. Ahuge cleft
was present in the anterior mitral leaet (Figure 1). The mitral anulus measured 17cm in
circumference and the tricuspid anulus measured 15cm. The edges of the cleft were thick. The
atrial and ventricular septa were intact. The tricuspid, pulmonary and aortic valve leaets
were normal.
We found studies describing 10 patients at necropsy with a cleft in the anterior
mitral leaet unassociated with a defect in either the atrial or ventricular septum.

Information on age and gender was available in 6 of the 10 patients: All were males;
5 were younger than age 10years and 1 was 74years old. Of the 10 patients, some
degree of MRwas present in 9; only the 74-year-old man had no MR.
3
Only 2 of the
10 patients were known to have a large cleft—such as occurred in our patient—and
both had severe MRand progressive, eventually fatal congestive heart failure.
Our 27-year-old patient appears to be the oldest necropsy patient thus far
reported with severe MRfrom a cleft in the anterior mitral leaet. Although he had
evidence of congestive heart failure for a few months before death, his death was not
the result of cardiac disease. What allowed his relatively long survival? Although he
had MRduring his entire 27years, the degree of MRworsened through the years.
Initially, MRwas probably due entirely to the regurgitation through the cleft in the
anterior mitral leaet, but with time the mitral anulus progressively dilated, and
this huge anular dilation contributed to the degree of MR, as occurs in patients with
mitral valve prolapse.

It is likely that our patient was able to tolerate the MRwell because the huge
size of the left atrial cavity was able to “absorb” the left ventricular systolic pressure
and prevent its reection into the pulmonary veins and from there into the pulmonary arteries. More than 2 decades ago, Braunwald and Awe
6
demonstrated that
patients with pure MRin whom huge left atrial cavities develop do not have pulmonary venous and subsequently pulmonary arterial hypertension; in contrast, those
patients with severe MRwhose left atrial cavities do not dilate do have severe elevation of their pulmonary venous and pulmonary arterial pressures.
7
The courses in
the former group are long and those in the latter group are short. The present patient
had a huge left atrial cavity, nearly normal pulmonary wedge pressures and normal
pulmonary arterial pressures, and therefore prolonged survival.
