The surgical treatment of postinfarct aneurysm on the posterobasal aspect of left ventricle is seldom reported compared to apical aneurysm although the actual incidence is higher than expected, partly because of the complexity of the operation and unpredictable postoperative results. Here, we present a case of postinfarct posterobasal left ventricular aneurysm in which endoventricular circular patch plasty technique was applied successfully. The methodology is described with review of the relevant literature.

A left atrial aneurysm is a very rare cardiac anomaly that usually develops in the left atrial appendage. It usually develops congenitally, and has a risk of life-threatening complications. Here, we report a case of a growing aneurysm of the left atrium that was incidentally found in a 42-yr-old woman. Eighteen years prior, an abnormal cardiomegaly was found on a chest radiography for a pre-operative study. The chest radiography at this time demonstrated a more prominent cardiomegaly than the previous radiography findings. The left atrial aneurysm was diagnosed by echocardiography and cardiac catheterization. Although asymptomatic, she underwent a successful surgical excision to allay the possibilities of rupture, arrhythmia, heart failure, or thromboembolism. The surgical findings demonstrated an 8 x 15 cm sized saccular aneurysm at the left atrial appendage, and the pathologic findings showed three myocardial layers. The patient has been asymptomatic during the 15 months of follow-up. In conclusion, a congenital left atrial aneurysm can grow with time, even in asymptomatic cases, and an aneurysmectomy is a curative treatment, which can eliminate the potential complications.

Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is one of the most common congenital heart diseases. A rare complication occurring after its surgical treatment is the development of an aneurysm, and we report the radiologic findings in a case in which this occurred after surgical ligation.
