[Aortic Root Replacement with Patch Closure of Membranous Ventricular Septal Aneurysm].

Membranous ventricular septal aneurysm (MSA) complicated with annuloaortic ectasia (AAE) is rare in adults. Herein, we reported two successful surgical cases of this setting. One case is 50-year-old man with extensive infective endocarditis with underwent aortic coarctation repair in childhood. MSA was incidentally diagnosed at preoperative examination. The other patient is 53-year-old man who had severe aortic regurgitation complicated with AAE and membranous type ventricular septal defect with MSA. Simultaneous surgery comprising patch closure of MSA and aortic root replacement was performed in both patients. As for patch closure of MSA, the technical modification should be necessitated according to the fragility of the upper margin of the MSA.
