Abstract
RUIZ TORRES, José; ROLDAN, Francisco-Javier; LOPEZ QUIJANO, Juan Manuel and VARGAS BARRON, Jesús. Ventricular pseudoaneurysm. Clinical and echocardiographic evolution. Arch. Cardiol. Méx. [online]. 2005, vol.75, n.2, pp.182-183. ISSN 1665-1731.
The case of a patient with cardiac rupture following a myocardial infarction is presented. The rupture led to the formation of a ventricular pseudoaneurysm that was occupied by a thrombus that sealed the breakthrough point. The patient has survived without surgical treatment during the last 5 years. (Arch Cardiol Mex 2005; 75: 182-183)
Keywords : Ventricular pseudoaneurysm; Apical aneurysm; Organized thrombus.
