title: Successful surgical repair of a congenital subvalvular left ventricular aneurysm.
abstract: Subannular left ventricular aneurysms are rare in white persons. Six white patients have been reported in the literature who underwent surgical repair because of subaortic left ventricular aneurysm. The authors report on a further case, a 41 year-old woman who was operated on at their clinic. The rare occurrence of this disease inspired them to review the literature and to describe their case.
