CASE REPORT The authors present a case of a 67-year-old man who presented to the emergency department after three days of chest pain and was found to have an acute myocardial infarction with an incidental finding of a left ventricular aneurysm. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

We present a patient with a calcified congenital ventricular aneurysm who presented with supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias and who was treated by surgical resection. [revespcardiol.org]

• Congestive Heart Failure

  Surgical resection should be considered for LVFA occurring within three months after myocardial infarction or development of congestive heart failure. [perfusion.com]

  Methods and Results In a clinicopathologic study of 7 new cases, the major presenting features in 6 patients were congestive heart failure in 4, ventricular arrhythmias in a 32-week fetus, and multiple congenital anomalies in a fetus with trisomy 13. [scienceopen.com]

  heart failure Arrhythmias Peripheral embolization Usually are either true or false aneurysms True ventricular aneurysms Localized outpouching of ventricular cavity Associated with dyskinesia Wide-mouthed in connection with the LV Anterolateral or apical [learningradiology.com]

  While he had recovered well from surgery he suffered from progressive congestive heart failure (NYHA III) during the past year. He was admitted to our institution for evaluation for heart transplantation. [thieme-connect.com]

  Heart failure: The portion of the heart that contains the aneurysm is not contractile and is frequently “dyskinetic”. This results in overall decrease in heart function and the development of congestive heart failure. 2. [healio.com]

• Falling

  A 7-year-old boy developed a left ventricular aneurysm with massive hemopericardium 3 years ago due to a fall from a fourth-floor window. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Our data fall on this line, showing an association between smoking status and the absence of LVA. [romanianjournalcardiology.ro]

• Weight Loss

  In Africa, tuberculosis is the primary cause, but was ruled out in our patient because the usual weight loss and clinical and radiographic signs were absent. Other causes such as trypanosomiasis, infective endocarditis and trauma were also excluded. [em-consulte.com]

• Dyspnea

  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. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  In February 2010 she reconsidered the ICD as she represented with severe dyspnea. Her presenting ECG demonstrated a sinus tachycardia of 120 bpm and a wide QRS consistent was a left bundle branch block. [scmr.org]

  A 67-year-old woman with a history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and hyperlipidemia presented with mild exertional dyspnea of several-month’s duration. [circ.ahajournals.org]

  Two months later, the patient was admitted again, this time with class IV NYHA symptoms: dyspnea at rest, ortopnea, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea. [tmj.ro]

  Otherwise patients can present with chest pain, dyspnea and hypotension [ 3 ]. [cardiothoracicsurgery.biomedcentral.com]

• Heart Failure

  In April 2017, a 25-year-old patient havingsubmitral left ventricular aneurysm with New York Heart Association (NYHA) class IV heart failure and mild left ventricular systolic dysfunctionreceived medical treatment at our institution. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Her interests are in the pathophysiology of heart failure. [books.google.com]

  Though LVA occasionally occurs in congenital, infective, connective tissue and traumatic heart disease, myocardial infarction remains the most frequent cause. [slideshare.net]

  A case of a 74 year-old male with a history of ischemic heart disease secondary to myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation who developed a giant left ventricular apical aneurysm is presented. [go.gale.com]

• Hydrops Fetalis

  Symptomatic patients presented with arrhythmias (LVA 16% vs LVD 0%), hydrops fetalis (LVA 27% vs LVD 18.8%), or rupture (LVA 4% vs LVD 38%; p = 0.02). Size changes of the LVA/LVD during pregnancy were reported in 17%. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Stroke

  Such an aneurysm represents non-contractile tissue that reduces stroke volume and strains the remaining myocardium. The stasis of blood in the aneurysm predisposes to mural thrombosis. [library.med.utah.edu]

  Embolization of left ventricular thrombi can lead to embolic stroke or other systemic embolisms. 3. [healio.com]

  They may become stuck in the blood vessels and cause strokes or other organ damage. You may need to take anticoagulant medicine (blood thinners) to prevent blood clots. [summitmedicalgroup.com]

  This may cause strokes or other organ damage. Often people with heart aneurysms also have a fast or irregular heartbeat. How is it diagnosed? Your healthcare provider will ask about your symptoms and medical history and examine you. [hhma.org]

• Akinesia

  Echocardiography is useful for diagnosing dyskinesia or akinesia during systole. Echocardiography can diagnose mural thrombosis in the aneurysmal sac. [wikidoc.org]

  The end diastolic volume was 82ml, with apical dyskinesia and anterior akinesia. The left ventricular ejection fraction was 40%. We performed tridimensional (3D) transthoracic echocardiography to study the etiology of MR. [tmj.ro]

The workup of the fetus at 26 weeks' gestation led to the identification of a left ventricle aneurysm. Initially, the value of ICT of the left ventricle indicated adequate cardiac function. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Mural Thrombus

  A calcified left ventricular aneurysm with mural thrombus was confirmed with cardiac MRI and a CT scan. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Mural thrombus and subsequent embolisation. Causes The following conditions may cause an LV aneurysm: Acute myocardial infarction (by far the most common). Cardiomyopathy. Cardiac infection. Congenital abnormalities. [lifeinthefastlane.com]

  ECHOcardiography showed a very depressed left ventricle with an ejection fraction of about 15%, apical aneurysm and mural thrombus. Anterior leads show Q waves and domed ST segment elevation. Leads V4 to V6 also show negative T waves. [metealpaslan.com]

Treatment should be individually tailored depending on clinical severity, and treatment options are limited. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Many left ventricular aneurysms are small and don’t need treatment. Treatment for large aneurysms may include medicines or surgery. Take care of your health. [eheandme.com]

This patient's condition improved after treatment with diuresis and inotropic therapy, and he was discharged home. [nejm.org]

If you have severe symptoms that are not helped by these treatments, you may need surgery to remove the aneurysm. How can I take care of myself? Follow the full course of treatment prescribed by your healthcare provider. Take care of your health. [hhma.org]

Given that this combination of congenital LV aneurysm and LVNC is significantly associated with poor prognosis, it appears that patients with congenital LV aneurysm and LVNC are candidates for early, aggressive intervention, including surgical aneurysmectomy [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In our case, LVA/LV ratio was >1 throughout the pregnancy that suggested poor prognosis ( Figure 2a ). With the relative enlargement of aneurysm, we expected poor prognosis of this fetus. [nature.com]
