Distinct Area

Left ventricular aneurysm (LVA) is one of the most important complications of myocardial infarction LVA is strictly defined as a distinct area of abnormal left ventricular diastolic contour with systolic dyskinesia or paradoxical bulging. LVA usually results from myocardial infarction. Other rare aetiologies of LVA include hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, Chagas' disease, sarcoidosis, congenital LVA, and idiopathic However, LVA formation in patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy is rarely reported, and the incidence, clinical features, and pathogenesis of LVA formation in patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy is not well understood. Here, we present a 45 years old, idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy patient with LVA and normal coronary arteries The pathogenesis of LVA formation in patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy is not clear. One acceptable hypothesis is that coronary artery emboli originate from mural thrombi, present in some patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy, which develop due to local wall infarction and fibrosis. The local myocardial perfusion differences could be seen in idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy and predominantly found in the anteroposterior axis of the left ventricle. Local fibrosis occurs more frequently on the anterior wall or posterior wall, and less frequently on the lateral or septal wall. In our patient, LVA existed in the septal segments.We could not define the exact mechanism of the septal aneurysm in our patient but we decided to present this abnormal case, which is different from cases thus far reported in the literature.

Ventricular Aneurysm

An ischemic ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a lethal complication of myocardial infarction (MI), commonly from 24 hours to up to 5 days of presentation with AMI. Despite the improvement of surgical techniques, the mortality is still very high with poor prognosis. Left ventricular aneurysm (LVA) may also be a fatal mechanical complication of MI but rarely occurs in the posterior or inferior portion of the interventricular septum. Concomitant AMI mechanical complications in the same patient are less than infrequent with poor prognosis, particularly with late hospital arrival. We present an unusual case of post-myocardial infarction ventricular septal rupture (PI-VSR) combined with left ventricular inferior/inferoseptal aneurysm that was managed surgically. The aim of this article is to make clinician alerted in case of mechanical complication, especially when post-MI patients become hemodynamically unstable with refractory congestive heart failure.

Mechanical complications resulting from myocardial infarction usually have profound acute or chronic hemodynamic effects. Left ventricular aneurysm formation and ventricular septal rupture occurs in 10-20% patients after acute myocardial infarction [1-6]. Surgical techniques have gradually evolved since the first successful operation for post-infarct ventricular septal defect was performed by Cooley and colleagues in 1956 [2,3,6].
