Multimodal imaging aids differentiation of thrombosed LV aneurysm from IDH; leaves open standardized protocols for rare mimics.
A thrombosed LV aneurysm simulating an Intra-myocardial dissection hematoma (IDH) is a rarely reported condition. We describe a rare case of a 52-year-old man suffering from a thrombosed LV aneurysm, who was initially diagnosed as an IDH by conventional echocardiography. Finally, the patient was diagnosed with thrombosed LV aneurysm through multimodal imaging. We discuss the diagnostic process and surgery of the thrombosed LV aneurysm.

Sun et al. (2024) conducted a case report in Thrombosed left ventricular aneurysm (n=1). Multimodal imaging and surgical resection was evaluated on Diagnostic accuracy and surgical recovery.
