Multi-modality Imaging of a relapsing Mycotic post-infarction left ventricular pseudoaneurysm after surgical repair
Mycotic left ventricular pseudoaneurysm (LVP) is an uncommon life-threatening condition, resulting from myocardial rupture contained by the pericardium or scar tissue. Myocardial infarction is the leading cause of LVP, followed by cardiac surgery, previous chest trauma and infections. We present a case of a 69-year-old woman who developed a relapsing post-infarction LVP arising from mid infero-sep
