| Abstract: | This report describes a case of severe annuloarotic ectasia (AAE) who
presented without any symptoms. A 33-year-old man was noted to have a cardiac murmur
at an annual medical checkup. Evaluation of the cardiac murmur revealed severe AAE with
moderate aortic regurgitation (AR). He underwent immediate surgical treatment success-
fully and remains in good clinical condition. Therefore, even in asymptomatic patients, the
possibility of severe AAE should not be overlooked in patients with a murmur. Further,
echocardiographic evaluation should be performed in such patients. |
