Abstract
ABSTRACT Aneurysms of interventricular septum are a rare anomaly usually seen as an incidental finding on echocardiography. Rarely, they can cause right ventricular outflow tract obstruction. They can present in patients having other cardiac lesions. Diagnosis of interventricular septal aneurysm is not straightforward. They can be confused with sinus of valsalva aneurysm or ventricular septal defect on transthoracic echocardiography. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) provides a better alternative to delineate the interventricular septal aneurysm. We describe the TEE diagnosis of membranous interventricular septal aneurysm in two dissimilar patients who presented for cardiac surgery at our cardiac center.
