Figure 1 Transthoracic echocardiographic image showing an aortic valve 18.2 mm (200% of normal) in diameter, unruptured and markedly dilated sinuses of Valsalva (largest diameter: 22.2 mm), and a normally sized ascending aorta (diameter: 11.3 mm). LV, Left ventricle; LA, left atrium; AoV, aortic valve; aA, ascending aorta.

Figure 3 Diagram of aortic valve repair. A, Perforation of the leaflet in the bottom area of the NCC, unbalanced leaflets with a small RCC, and prolapsed LCC and NCC. B, Elongated free margin of leaflets were sutured at commissure to maintain correct leaflet length and sandwiched against aortic wall by pericardial patches.NCC, Noncoronary cusp; RCC, right coronary cusp; LCC, left coronary cusp.
