Key result
Plication of the aortic valve and patch closure of the left ventricular-right atrial communication under cardiopulmonary bypass resulted in immediate clinical improvement.
Case Report (n=1)
Surgical repair via plication of the aortic valve and patch closure of the left ventricular-right atrial communication resulted in immediate clinical improvement in a 29-year-old man.
We report a case of left ventricular-right atrial communication complicated by aortic valve incompetence in a 29-year-old man. The patient had a history of heart murmur during childhood. There were no clinical signs of infection. We performed plication of the aortic valve and patch closure of the left ventricular-right atrial communication under cardiopulmonary bypass. The patient improved immediately after the operation.
