Rare post-MI pseudoaneurysm case warrants imaging vigilance; leaves open optimal management pending larger cohorts.
Case Report (n=1)
This case highlights a rare instance of survival without surgical intervention following a post-myocardial infarction left ventricular free-wall rupture, facilitated by preexisting pericardial adhesions.
Malysz et al. (2025) conducted a case report in Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm complicating post-myocardial infarction free-wall rupture (n=1). Conservative management / Palliative treatment was evaluated. A patient with a remote history of CABG survived a post-myocardial infarction left ventricular free-wall rupture without surgical intervention, subsequently developing a large pseudoaneurysm.
