Giant coronary pseudoaneurysm. Five-year follow-up after bypass grafting

PK Chun, JE Davia, MD Cheitlin, DC Green, TE Bowen and WH Brott

A roentgenogram of the shoulder in a 25-year-old man with an athletic injury revealed a large mass along the left heart border. Evaluation with coronary arteriography established the diagnosis of a massive aneurysm of the left anterior descending coronary artery. The aneurysm was excised and a saphenous vein bypass graft was placed into the distal artery. Histologic examination revealed that the excised segment was a false aneurysm. Five years postoperatively, the patient is asymptomatic and the graft remains widely patent.
