Abstract :
The most frequent congenital heart defects in the neonatal period are ventricular septal defects. Ventricular septal aneurysms can rarely develop from an interventricular septal (IVS) defect in adults. We describe a 47-year-old man with an aneurysm in the IVS growing towards the right ventricle, which was confirmed by cardiac computed tomographic angiography and was missed by echocardiography.
