Abstract

Left ventricular pseudo-aneurysm is a rare complication that usually occurs after myocardial infarction or cardiac surgery. Sometimes it is related to cardiac rupture. We report on surgical management for a left ventricular pseudo-aneurysm that developed four years after surgery for ventricular septal defect in a patient with acute myocardial infarction.
