Abstract
A false aneurysm developed at the site of left ventricular venting in an 8-year-old boy who had undergone aortic valve commissurotomy under cardiopulmonary bypass. The diagnosis was made by clinical examination and chest radiography and confirmed by left ventricular cineangiography. The aneurysm was successfully resected.
