  • Figure 1 (A) Chest X-ray showed enlarged apical cardiac silhouette (asterisk). (B) CT angiography transvers view showing large apical pseudoaneurysm (asterisk). (C) Three-dimensional CT angiography showing pseudoaneurysm(asterisk) and connection to the LV cavity through a neck. (D) Transtorasic echocardiography apical 4 chamber view showing left ventricle apical pseudoaneurysm(asterisk) and entrance of pseudoaneurysm (arrow). (E) Transtorasic echocardiography apical 4 chamber colour doppler view showing pseudoaneurysm (asterisk) was connected to the LV cavity.
