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.
左心室假性动脉瘤(LVPs)是心肌梗死、心脏手术的并发症,少数情况下也可由胸部创伤、感染性心包炎或心肌意外穿孔导致的医源性因素引起。心室假性动脉瘤是由心腔外与心室相通的充满血液的腔隙形成。我们报告一例钝性非穿透性胸部损伤后出现的左心室假性动脉瘤病例。该患者接受了成功的动脉瘤缝合术。
