Abstract
We describe an aneurysm originating from the right sinus of Valsalva, with right ventricular outflow tract obstruction associated with ventr icular septal defect, in a 9-year-old boy. Diagnosis was made by echoc ardiography and cardiac catheterization. Successful surgical repair of ventricular septal defect and aortic valvuloplasty resulted in sympto matic improvement.
