Key result
Three-dimensional echocardiography provided precise delineation of a mitral-aortic intervalvular fibrosa pseudoaneurysm, guiding the appropriate surgical strategy.
Case Report (n=1)
Three-dimensional echocardiography provides valuable anatomical detail for surgical planning in complex cases of infective endocarditis with pseudoaneurysm of the mitral-aortic intervalvular fibrosa.

Supports case-specific surgical planning in rare pseudoaneurysms; leaves open prospective validation of 3D echocardiography.
Caselli et al. (2010) conducted a case report in Pseudoaneurysm of the mitral-aortic intervalvular fibrosa caused by bicuspid aortic valve endocarditis (n=1). Three-dimensional echocardiography vs. Conventional two-dimensional echocardiography was evaluated on Delineation of lesions and surgical strategy guidance. Three-dimensional echocardiography provided precise delineation of a mitral-aortic intervalvular fibrosa pseudoaneurysm, guiding the appropriate surgical strategy.
