If unruptured,<unk>  of<unk> <unk>  (commonly abbreviated SVA or SOVA) is usually asymptomatic and typically goes undetected until symptoms appear or medical imaging is performed for other reasons. If symptoms do occur, the most common are shortness of breath, palpitations, myocardial ischemia, and syncope. Even less common, but more serious, presentations are embolic stroke and myocardial infarction due to blockage of a coronary artery by the<unk> . A ruptured<unk>  typically leads to an aortocardiac shunt and progressively worsening heart failure. An<unk>  of the aortic<unk>  may rupture due to infective endocarditis involving the aortic wall and tertiary-stage syphilis. The manifestations appear depending on the site where the<unk>  has ruptured. For example, if the<unk>  ruptures in a low pressure area like the right atrium or right ventricle then a continuous type of murmur is heard. The murmur is located in the left parasternal region mainly confined to the lower sternum. It is also accompanied by a superficial thrill. A ruptured<unk>  of<unk>  abscess represents a surgical emergency.
