Abstract EN
The left ventricle pseudoaneurysm is an anomaly of the left ventricle and is severed and joined with a pocket look.
There may be secondary to a myocardial infarction, trauma, or surgical procedure.
Sometimes the cause is not found.
Complications are heart failure, arrhythmias, vascular embolism, and sudden death.
The treatment is surgical only.
The authors report the case of a black patient of 64 years old, without medical history, had seen to a deformation of the cardiac shadow in radiography.
The left ventricle pseudoaneurysm and in situ thrombus are visualized in echocardiography and CT scan.
The patient is waiting for heart surgery.
