This is one case report of surgically treated ventricular septal defect [VSD] with aortic insufficiency [AI] at department of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, Hanyang university hospital. He had had progressive dyspnea on exertion and palpitation for 3 years prior to admission to our hospital. On examination, the blood pressure was 120/0 mmHg and the pulse rate 88 times/min. Bobbing motion of the head, Water hammer pulse, Corringan`s pulse, Quincke`s pulse and to and fro murmur were present. The heart murmur was consistent with .VSD and AI. Cardiomegaly was seen in chest X-ray. EKG, echocardiogram, aortogram and right heart catheterization was performed. On Sep. 9, 1980, open heart surgery was performed under the impression of VSD with AI. Infracrystal type VSD measuring 2 x 1.5 cm in diameter was closed with Teflon patch graft through the transverse ventriculotomy. AI was due to prolapsed, elongated right coronary and noncoronary cusp, especially noncoronary cusp. The prolapsed, elongated aortic leaflets were plicated by placing three 8-figure sutures between the free edge and the base of the leaflet [Frater`s method] through a transverse aortotomy. Postoperatively, he made an uneventful recovery, his blood pressure was 120/70 mmHg and showed no signs AI or residual shunt at discharge.
