Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm (PSA) after surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR) is a known but uncommon complication. It is associated with risks such as thromboembolism and life-threatening rupture. Surgical repair has traditionally been utilized in low-risk patients but transcatheter closure has become a promising therapeutic option. This case report describes the utility of multimodality imaging in pre-, intra-, and post-procedural evaluation of transcatheter PSA closure and is among the first to demonstrate the utility of 3D print model.
经外科主动脉瓣置换 (AVR) 术后出现左心室假性动脉瘤 (PSA) 是一种已知但不常见的并发症。它与血栓栓塞和危及生命的破裂等风险相关。传统上,低危患者采用外科修复,但经导管封堵已成为一种有前途的治疗选择。本病例报告描述了多模态成像在经导管 PSA 封堵术的术前、术中和术后评估中的应用,并且是首批展示 3D 打印模型应用的报告之一。
