(a) False vs (b) true left ventricular aneurysms with adherent parietal pericardia. The wall of the false aneurysm is parietal pericardium, which had adhered to the epicardium before the left ventricle ruptured. In the true aneurysm, the parietal pericardium adheres to the scarred left ventricular myocardium, but the actual wall of the aneurysm had been myocardium at one time.
