The vast majority of left ventricular aneurysms (LVA) are secondary to coronary artery disease. The natural history of LVA is now better understood. The increasing use of noninvasive techniques has allowed earlier recognition and better appreciation of LVA genesis and pathophysiology. Improvements in surgical anesthesia and techniques have resulted in more successful LVA surgery. This article reviews the pathogenesis, natural history, and complications of LVA. Surgical indications and available treatment options in the management of patients with LVA and severe symptoms are presented. Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm (false aneurysm) will also be discussed.
