  • Title: Surgical repair of left ventricular pseudoaneurysm following perventricular device closure of muscular ventricular septal defect.
    Author: Taqatqa AS, Caputo M, Kenny DP, Diab KA.
    Journal: J Card Surg; 2016 Nov; 31(11):697-699. PubMed ID: 27600915.
    Abstract:
    Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm formation following perventricular device closure of a muscular ventricular septal defect is a rare complication. We describe a case of left ventricular pseudoaneurysm in an infant with Swiss-cheese ventricular septal defects who initially underwent closure with an Amplatzer device using a hybrid approach. The pseudoaneurysm was successfully resected surgically.
