A patient with aneurysm of the body of the left atrium presenting with angina pectoris and mild congestive heart failure, but completely normal coronary arteriograms, is reported. A deverticulum seen in the left ventricular angiogram, read as a ventricular diverticulum, was found at surgery to be an aneurysm of the body of the left atrium. The possible etiologics and complications of the left atrial aneurysm are briefly discussed.
