Fig 1 Representative computed tomography images of the enlarging left ventricular pseudoaneurysm. Coronal images at (A) 4 and (B) 8 weeks after coronary artery bypass grafting demonstrate enlargement of the aneurysm from 3.2 × 3.4 cm to 5.0 × 5.1 cm. (C, D) Axial images also demonstrate an approximately 2-cm enlargement of the left ventricular pseudoaneurysm over 4 weeks.
