“…On the basis of these previous studies, it is clear that an asymptomatic ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is an uncommon presentation in adulthood, and occurs even more rarely in children. 7 In a large study by Nowicki et al involving 125 patients with ruptured sinus of Valsalva, asymptomatic patients were found to be significantly younger, which is shown to be statistically significant with a p-value of less than 0.005. 8 This report highlights the need for a high index of suspicion while evaluating new continuous murmurs in children, regardless of the symptoms.…”

“…Kakos et al 6 reviewed the diagnosis and management of aneurysm of the sinus of Valsalva in children, emphasising the typical presentations in children. On the basis of these previous studies, it is clear that an asymptomatic ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is an uncommon presentation in adulthood, and occurs even more rarely in children 7 . In a large study by Nowicki et al involving 125 patients with ruptured sinus of Valsalva, asymptomatic patients were found to be significantly younger, which is shown to be statistically significant with a p-value of less than 0.005 8 …”
