Congenital aneurysm of the left ventricle associated with supravalvular aortic stenosis and aneurysm of the left main coronary artery: case report and review of the literature.
We report a unique case of a 33 year old female with congenital aneurysm of the left ventricular apex associated with an aneurysm of the left main coronary artery and surgically repaired supravalvular aortic stenosis. The congenital aneurysm of the left ventricular apex was not associated with a midline thoraco-abdominal defect, as reported in the medical literature. The patient survived two episodes of thrombo-embolism and is well after 10 years of medical follow-up.
