Staphylococcal postoperative subannular left ventricular false aneurysm.
A 37-year-old male with acute complicated methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus mitral valve endocarditis underwent urgent valve replacement with a bileaflet prosthesis. The postoperative course was complicated with fever and heart failure. Echocardiography showed a large subannular false aneurysm of the left ventricle. Three weeks later resection and closure of the defect with a patch ma...
متن کاملDiagnosing left ventricular aneurysm from pseudo-aneurysm: a case report and a review in literature
Rupture of the free wall of the left ventricle (LV) is a catastrophic complication occurring in 4% of patients after myocardial infarction (MI) and in 23% of those who die of MI. Rarely the rupture is contained by an adherent pericardium creating a pseudo-aneurysm. This clinical finding calls for emergency surgery. If no ruptures are detectable and myocardium wall integrity is confirmed, we are...
متن کاملA Case of Left Ventricular False Tendon with Ventricular Tachycardia
A 48‐year‐old lady presented to the emergency department with a history of sudden onset palpitations associated with fatigue. 12‐lead electrocardiogram was suggestive of ventricular tachycardia with right bundle branch block morphology [Figure 1], patient was hemodynamically unstable so electrically cardioverted. Subsequently two‐dimensional transthoracic echocardiogram revealed dilated left ve...
متن کاملLeft ventricular postoperative false aneurysm following apical venting
We report a case of false aneurysm of the left ventricle occurring subsequently to the placing of a vent sump line through the apex during an aortic valve procedure; the diagnosis was made twelve months later during a routine echocardiographic examination. The lesion was successfully repaired. This case recommend the use of other routes of venting in order to reduce the incidence of such compli...

Fig. 1. Coronal view of a re-formatted CT scan image with contrast showing the right ventricle (RV), left ventricle (LV), and a pericardial haematoma (PH). ‘L’ represents the level of the rupture of the myocardial abscess and its connection to the pericardial space. Fig. 2. CT 3-D reconstruction with contrast showing the right ventricle (RV), left ventricle (LV), and the pericardial haematoma (...
