Abstract

We present the case of a young man who is admitted in Intensive Care Unit with chest pain as manifestation of masive aortic regurgitation due to infective endocarditis in bicuspid aortic valve. The transesophageal echocardiography also shows, as severe complication, pseudoaneurysm of the sinus of Valsalva that communicates with both aortic root as left ventricle.
