Abstract
Eleven years after surgical repair of pulmonary atresia with a ventricular septal defect with a valved conduit, a 20 year old patient was diagnosed on follow up echocardiography to have a right ventricular pseudoaneurysm related to the conduit. The echocardiographic findings were confirmed at reoperation and the pseudoaneurysm was excised.
