Left ventricular aneurysm formation is a common complication of myocardial infarction. Depending on the definition used, the incidence in survivors of acute myocardial infarction is between 4% and 40%, with mural thrombi present in about half of all aneurysms. Infection of these thrombi at times of bacteraemia might be expected to occur quite commonly but has been described only occasionally. We present such a case and review previously reported cases.
左心室室壁瘤形成是心肌梗死的常见并发症。根据所采用的定义，急性心肌梗死幸存者中的发病率在4%至40%之间，约一半的室壁瘤内存在附壁血栓。菌血症时这些血栓发生感染可能预期相当常见，但仅偶尔有描述。我们报告这样一例病例并回顾既往报道的病例。
