Abstract

Congenital left ventricular aneurysm (CLVA) associated with multiple aneurysms with rupture into the left atrium (LA) is rare. We report a 17-year-old male with two CLVAs, one of which ruptured into the LA, and discuss the surgical management and review the literature of this rare disease.
