Subannular aortic aneurysms in whites. Report of two cases and review of literature.

Subannular aortic aneurysms are a rare entity occurring predominantly in young black men. Five white patients have been reported who underwent surgical correction, but long-term survival occurred in only two. We report two white men, 36 and 45 years old, who survived aortic valve replacement and direct suture of subannular aneurysms, with no symptoms at 29 and 42 postoperative months.
