Eur Heart J. 1992 Mar;13(3):424-5. doi: 10.1093/oxfordjournals.eurheartj.a060186.

Abstract

Annular subvalvular aneurysms have been reported rarely in Caucasian individuals. We describe the case of a white man who had an asymptomatic annular submitral left ventricular aneurysm diagnosed during the diagnostic work-up of cervical lymphadenopathies. Our case is unique because of its occurrence in a Caucasian and its characteristic radiological features.
