Figure 2 A, Multislice CT scan of the heart (view from above). The aneurysm is clearly shown originating from the LAD. It is composed of a large thrombus surrounding a patent inner channel. Inset is virtual endoscopy of the LAD and aneurysm. B, Coronary angiography of left coronary artery demonstrating the circulating channel of the LAD aneurysm.
