  • Title: Can computed tomodensitometry predict ventricular pseudoaneurysm occurrence after heart valve endocarditis?
    Author: Fouilloux V, Aldebert P, Gorincour G.
    Journal: Cardiol Young; 2019 Sep; 29(9):1206-1207. PubMed ID: 31434603.
    Abstract:
    Ventricular pseudoaneurysm is a rare but well-known complication after valvular endocarditis. The lesion was localised exactly where pre-operative CT scan showed lack of enhancement in the postero-lateral wall of the left ventricle. This case demonstrates how much attention must be paid to myocardial CT images and emphazises the need of close follow-up in patients with infective endocartitis.
