title: [Pseudoaneuysms of the heart after myocardial infarct. Apropos of 5 operated cases].
abstract: The authors base themselves on 5 personal cases and a review of the literature to summarise the clinical and paraclinical features of false aneurysms of the heart. The clinical features differ from those of true aneurysms only slightly. It is only arteriography, which shows up the collar and the slow evacuation of the cavity, which makes the real distinction and argues in favour of operation. The results of surgical treatment have been satisfactory, especially considering the natural outcome, which is always death from rupture.
