Subepicardial aneurysm of left ventricle adjacent to the aortic root: demonstration on multidetector CT.
We report a case of subepicardial aneurysm, which developed in the anterobasal portion of the left ventricle wall and extended into the space between the aortic root and the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT). Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) demonstrates this rare aneurysm well.
