Clin Case Rep. 2016 Mar 10;4(4):406-8. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.518. eCollection 2016 Apr.

Abstract

The risk of rupture of LV pseudaneurysm is still not well understood, and ischemic cardiomyopathy with heart failure is a common consequence. Simple investigations like chest X-ray can give clue to such a serious diagnosis.

Keywords: Chest X‐ray; MSCT; heart failure; pseudoaneurysm.
