  Figure 1. Parasternal Long-Axis View TTE Showing Multiple Interconnected Pseudoaneurysmal Cavities, With Narrow Neck as Entry Point Along With Pericardial Effusion Pseudoaneurysmal cavities are denoted by red stars. LA = left atrium; LV = left ventricle; PE = pericardial effusion; TTE = transthoracic echocardiogram.
