Subaortic left ventricular pseudoaneurysm of obscure origin.
Subaortic pseudoaneurysms of the left ventricle are rare acquired cardiac defects. They are usually associated with previous valve surgery, trauma, or aortic valve endocarditis. We describe the appearance of subaortic pseudoaneurysm 10 years after left heart catheterization in a patient with both aortic stenosis and regurgitation. The differential diagnosis of such lesions is presented.
