Abstract

We present a case of left ventricular pseudoaneurysm following coronary bypass surgery. The cause was infection, dating from the bypass procedure 1 1/2 years before. Repair of pseudoaneurysm in a patient with a bypass is complicated by the presence of grafts which should be protected from injury. Details of successful management in this case are presented.
