Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm causing coronary angiography images resembling myocardial bridging.
Acquired pseudoaneurysm of the left ventricle is a rare disorder that usually occurs after transmural myocardial infarction or after cardiac surgery. Pseudoaneurysms are usually detected because of symptoms; less often incidentally. Here we present a case of pseudoaneurysm as a result of unknown etiology causing myocardial bridging like image at angiography.
