Popis: Ruptured Sinus of Valsalva aneurysms during pregnancy is rare and presents a threat both to the mother and the fetus. We report a case of ruptured nonsinus of Valsalva aneurysms in a 26-year-old woman diagnosed at 32+4 weeks of gestation. A successful elective lower-segment cesarean section was conducted under general anesthesia. A successful surgical correction of the ruptured aneurysm under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) was performed with patch repair after 13 days. A multidisciplinary approach with respect to the pregnant patient’s diagnosis, indications, and timing of surgery is necessary in ensuring the best possible outcomes for both the mother and the child.
