Pulmonary mycotic pseudo-aneurysm with a prior history of ventricular septal defect. Case report with review of literature.

In general aneurysms of the pulmonary arteries are less frequent than intracranial, aortic or other vascular locations. Infectious causes include bacteria such as Staphylococcus sp and Streptococcus sp, mycobacteria, Treponema pallidium (syphilis) and rarely fungi. We report a 7 year old female with two right-sided parahilar pseudo-aneurysm of fungal origin with a prior history of ventricular septal defect.

Unruptured Noncoronary Sinus of Valsalva Aneurysm Associated with Atrial Septal Defect (ASD).

Sinus of Valsalva aneurysms are rare cardiac anomalies. Incidence of this anomaly is higher in Asian population with male preponderance. Our case highlights a rare association between unruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm and atrial septal defect (ASD).

Pseudoaneurysm Arising from Mitral Aortic Intervalvular Fibrosa (P-MAIVF) Communicating with Left Atrium (LA): Multiple Detector Computed Tomography (MDCT) Evaluation.

Background: The entity pseudoaneurysm arising from the mitral aortic intervalvular fibrosa (P-MAIVF) is a rare cardiac finding caused by multiple factors. This entity is usually diagnosed with echocardiography and confirmed with cardiac computed tomography (CT).

Case Report: We presented a case of congenital P-MAIVF communicating with the left atrium (LA) and an aberrant right subclavian artery, misdiagnosed as primary mitral regurgitation (MR) in transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) due to relative contraindications to transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE), revealed in a hemophilic patient, and diagnosed with cardiac CT.

Rare case of truncus arteriosus with anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ARCAPA) and unilateral left pulmonary artery agenesis.

The incidence of congenital heart disease (CHD) is 2.4-3.8/1000 live births.
