Introduction The left ventricular (LV) pseudoaneurysm (PA) is a rare mechanical complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). It results from myocardial rupture, in which the hemorrhagic process is contained by the adherent pericardium. It occurs most commonly in the inferior and posterior ventricular wall, since the rupture of the anterior ventricular wall usually leads to cardiac tamponade and immediate death, while the inferior-posterior face of the heart rests on the diaphragm, facilitating the ventricular cavity containment by the pericardium. – […]
