title: Unruptured aneurysms of the non-coronary and left sinuses of Valsalva accompanied by severe aortic valve regurgitation.
abstract: This report describes a case of giant unruptured aneurysms of the left and non-coronary sinuses of Valsalva of the aortic valve associated with severe aortic regurgitation.
