A Case Report of Left Ventricular Pseudoaneurysm after Acute Inferoposterolateral Myocardial Infarction

left ventricular pseudoaneurysm is a rare complication of myocardial infarction. Since the risk of rupture is high , accurate diagnosis and if possible prompt surgical repair are of great importance. A 79 year old man was admitted because of dyspnea on exertion and congestive heart failure , two weeks after an acute inferoposterolateral myocardial infarction. B mode echocardiography and color doppler were done on the patients and left ventricular pseudoaneurysm was diagnosed. Because of high risk of his operation , he only received medical therapy. Fortunately after more than two years , his general condition is satisfactory.
