pubmed:abstractText |
A 17-year-old man with staphylococcal endocarditis of the mitral valve developed an infective aneurysm of the posterior left ventricular wall. Echocardiography revealed an echo-free space posterior to the posterior left ventricular wall. This echo-free space undoubtedly represented the aneurysmal sac, because it could be temporarily obliterated by injecting saline into it and was no longer detectable following surgical closure of the sac. Thus echocardiography may be helpful in the detection of an infective aneurysm of the left ventricle.
