Post-traumatic left ventricular pseudoaneurysm.

چکیده
Left ventricular pseudoaneurysms (LVPs) occur as a complication of myocardial infarction, cardiac surgery and, rarely, due to thoracic trauma, infective pericarditis or iatrogenisis due to accidental perforation of the myocardium. Ventricular pseudoaneurysms are acquired by blood-filled spaces outside the cardiac chambers communicating with the ventricle. We present a case of LVP presented after a blunt non-penetrating chest injury. The patient underwent successful aneurysmorrhaphy.

Post-traumatic aneurysm of the left ventricle.
Three cases of left ventricular aneurysm secondary to external violence are reported. Each patient presented with a pseudoaneurysm of the left ventricle, following penetrating trauma in two instances and blunt trauma in the third instance. The interval between injury and diagnosis ranged from 5 months to 24 years. Two patients underwent successful resection of the aneurysm. Repair was not attem...
متن کاملEchophonocardiographic diagnosis of left ventricular pseudoaneurysm.
We report the presence of an unusual systolic murmur associated with a traumatic left ventricular pseudoaneurysm. Echophonocardiographic studies showed the murmur to begin at the first heart sound, but end well before the second heart sound. It seems likely that the murmur is caused by the systolic flow of blood from the left ventricle into the relatively noncompliant pseudoaneurysm. The echoca...
متن کاملLong-term Survival of A Patient with Asymptomatic Left Ventricular Pseudoaneurysm after Acute Myocardial Infarction
An 82 years old man developed a left ventricular pseudoaneurysm after acute myocardial infarction when he was 72 years old. Coronary angiography showed left main and triple-vessel coronary artery disease. On left ventriculography, a tubular-like pseudoaneurysm was demonstrated that originated from the basal inferoposterior wall of the left ventricle. He underwent coronary artery bypass surgery ...
متن کاملPost Traumatic Pseudoaneurysm Arising from V4 Segment of Vertebral Artery: A Case Report
This case report describes a traumatic pseudoaneurysm arising from the right V4 segment of the vertebral artery, near the origin of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery. Post-traumatic vertebral artery pseudoaneurysm is rare, but associated with a high mortality rate. We report on an extremely rare case of post-traumatic pseudoaneurysm of the vertebral artery with delayed manifestation. A 9...
متن کاملSurgical treatment of post-infarction left ventricular pseudoaneurysm: Case series highlighting various surgical strategies
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE The left ventricular pseudoaneurysm (LVP) is rare, the surgical experience is limited and its surgical treatment remains still a challenge with an elevated mortality. Herein, it is presented a retrospective analysis of our experience with acquired post infarct LVP over a10-year period. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between January 2006 through August 2016, a total of 13 pat...
