Unrecognized concomitant ventricular septal rupture and left ventricular aneurysm 10 months after myocardial infarction in a patient presenting with chronic heart failure
Abstract Background We report a rare case of concomitant inferior left ventricular aneurysm and ventricular septal rupture in a patient presenting with chronic heart failure. Case presentation An 81-year-old man suffered from congestive heart failure. His symptoms were alleviated by medical manageme...
