Pseudoaneurysm of the left ventricle after isolated pericarditis and Staphylococcus aureus septicemia
Abstract
Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm after isolated pericarditis as a result of Staphylococcal septicemia is very rare. A case of a very young patient is described. Diagnosis is made by echocardiography. Immediate surgical resection of the pseudoaneurysm is the therapy of choice.
