    Author: Salehi N, Maleki M, Hosseini S, Nasiri-Ahmadabadi M, Alizadeh Z, Vakili-Zarch A.
    Journal: Arch Iran Med; 2013 Aug; 16(8):491-2. PubMed ID: 23906258.
    Abstract:
    We describe the case of a man incidentally found to have a pseudoaneurysm of the ascending aorta at the site of a previously (12 years ago) implanted metallic prosthetic aortic valve. Transthoracic echocardiography and computed tomography images demonstrate the pseudoaneurysm. The patient has undergone surgical repair with a good result.
