    Author: al-Saadon K, Walley VM, Green M, Beanlands DS.
    Journal: Cathet Cardiovasc Diagn; 1995 Jul; 35(3):266-9. PubMed ID: 7553838.
    Abstract:
    False aneurysms of the left ventricle are rare complications of myocardial infarction. In this unusual case, a 57-year-old male patient had a false aneurysm, that took origin from a true aneurysm in the inferior wall, both discovered 7 years postinfarct. The aneurysms were demonstrable by ventriculography and were resected because of ventricular tachycardia.
