A Chronic Left Ventricular Pseudoaneurysm Without Hemodynamic Compromise After Myocardial Infarction: Case Report

Year 2012, Issue: 2, 139 - 141, 01.06.2012

Abstract

Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm is a serious mechanical complication of myocardial infarction which usually presents as hemodynamic compromise in acute course of the disease. We present a case of chronic left ventricular pseudoaneurysm without any hemodynamic compromise due to an old anterolateral myocardial infarction

Miyokard İnfarktüsü Sonrası Hemodinamik Bozukluk Oluşturmayan Kronikleşmiş Sol Ventrikül Psödoanevrizması: Olgu Sunumu

Year 2012, Issue: 2, 139 - 141, 01.06.2012

Abstract

Sol ventrikül psödoanevrizması, miyokard enfarktüsünün genellikle akut döneminde hemodinamik bozuklukla birlikte seyreden ciddi bir mekanik komplikasyonudur. Bu yazıda eski anterolateral miyokard infarktüsü sonrasında kronik sol ventrikül psödoanevrizması tanısı alan ve hemodinamik bozukluk bulguları olmayan bir olgu sunulmaktadır
