title: Coexistence of idiopathic left ventricular aneurysm and aneurysm of right coronary artery.
abstract: A 40-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with dyspnea and atypical chest pain. Left ventricle (LV) apico-lateral wall aneurysm and right coronary artery aneurysm were found. We could find no etiological reason for this condition. Surgical treatment was considered but the patient refused. In this report, we describe an interesting and rare case of idiopathic LV aneurysm accompanied by coronary artery aneurysm.
