Case presentation A 39-year-old young female was admitted into our hospital because of palpitation and shortness of breath. Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) showed a huge pseudoaneurysm located in pericardium. Coronary angiography revealed the LCX pericardia fistula. Then surgical treatment was performed.
