title: [Chronic Heart Failure Due to Formation of Giant Left Ventricular Pseudoaneurysm After Painless Myocardial Infarction in a Female Patient With Diabetes].
abstract: Rupture of the free wall of the left ventricle with the formation of a false aneurysm (pseudoaneurysm, PA) - is a rare complication of acute myocardial infarction. Given the high risk of rupture of the PA and other life-threatening consequences (progressive heart failure, thromboembolic events), as well as the absence of pathognomonic signs and the difficulty in determining treatment strategy (feasibility and timing of surgery), early diagnosis of this complication appears to be especially important. We present here an overview of literature data on prevalence, specific features of diagnostics, and problems related to selection of method of treatment of PA. A case f congestive heart failure due to PA of the left ventricle as a result of painless myocardial infarction in 65-year-old patient with diabetes is also presented.
