In November 2011, a contrast computed tomography scan showed a mildly ill-defined, nonenhancing, hypodense nodular lesion, 11 mm in diameter, in the aortic root on the right coronary cusp of the aortic valve (Figure 1).
Transthoracic echocardiography: parasternal short axis shows a round mass, 9 mm in diameter (yellow arrow), on the aortic side of the right coronary cusp of the aortic valve.
