Abstract:
Sinus of Valsalva aneurysms are rare congenital anomalies. Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm rupture, leads to biventricular failure due to systemic to pulmonary shunting. Surgical repair has been the traditional treatment for these aneurysms. Recently, percutaneous treatment has been successfully performed to selected patients. We present a 36-year-old man who had ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm, that was successfully treated with using a catheter-based approach with the patent ductus arteriosus occluder device.

Percutaneous Cricothyrotomy
A surgical airway procedure is indicated when other forms of endotracheal intubation have failed and ventilation is worsening or not possible. This is the feared "can't intubate, can't ventilate" scenario, and in the emergency setting, cricothyrotomy is the surgical procedure of choice.
Cricothyrotomy is preferred over tracheotomy because of the lower risk of complications, the...
