In this report, we present a case of a 51-year-old male patient with a left ventricular (LV) pseudoaneurysm and a ruptured lateral wall due to a previous myocardial infarction. This patient was referred to the Coronary Care Unit with a past history of acute coronary syndrome of two months. He presented with palpitations and acute pulmonary edema upon admission. Color Doppler detected a ruptured lateral ventricular wall, and an echocardiogram confirmed the presence of a lateral ventricular wall pseudoaneurysm. Emergency LV aneurysmal rupture repair surgery was performed on this patient, and the postoperative findings were stable till discharge.

This is a case report of a 35-year-old man who was diagnosed with a bicuspid aortic valve associated with recurrent endocarditis complicated by an aortic root pseudoaneurysm. The pseudoaneurysm is a rare complication. In patients with infective endocarditis (IE), aortic root repair by bovine pericardial patch and subsequent graft infections are considered to be one of the most common risk factors linked to postoperative aortic root pseudoaneurysms. Aneurysms can appear as saccular bulges and are often misdiagnosed as prolapse. The presentation and complicated management are discussed in this case report.
