Recurrent left ventricular pseudoaneurysm with an ominous presentation.

We present a case of a 58-year-old male with a recurrent left ventricular pseudoaneurysm. Two years before, the patient underwent repair of an apical aneurysm with a thrombus, which was very likely infected and complicated by huge pseudoaneurysm. The dramatic presentation of the recurrent pseudoaneurysm, as it invaded the left chest wall tissue and protruded into the skin through an intercostal space, and the complexity of the procedures are well documented by surgical and accompanying technical images.
