Abstract

Left ventricular aneurysm (LVA) in postinfarction period makes for worse prognosis of cor‐ onary artery disease (CAD) course due to concomitant complications. With the natural course of postinfarction aneurysms 5 year survival varies from 25 to 60%, according to vari‐ ous authors. Ventricular arrhythmias cause death in 50% of the patients with remodelled left ventricle (LV) after myocardial infarction [1].
