Sumario:Left ventricular (LV) pseudoaneurysm is a rare complication following free wall rupture post transmural myocardial infarction or left ventricular surgery. A lot of imaging modalities like echocardiography, computerised tomography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging are available to diagnose it. Echocardiography plays a significant role in delineating the cavity, orifice and impact on the surrounding structures. We present a case of LV pseudoaneurysm recurrence following surgical repair.
