title: Two-dimensional real-time echocardiographic detection of a left ventricular aneurysm associated with mobile pedunculated thrombi.
abstract: A two-dimensional real-time echocardiographic study of a 51-year-old man with arterial emboli revealed an anterior wall aneurysm of the left ventricle containing mobile pedunculated masses. On the basis of this study alone, left ventricular aneurysmectomy and removal of a pedunculated thrombus were successfully performed.
