Due to presence of clinical symptoms suggesting ACS combined with high serum troponin levels, the urgent coronary angiography was performed. Three-vessel disease with the subtotal stenosis of the left anterior descending artery (LAD) and circumflex artery (Cx) with total occlusion of the right coronary artery (RCA) was diagnosed. The transthoracic echocardiography revealed the LV aneurysm with maximum dimensions of 49 × 57 mm and an area of a mural thrombus (Figure 1 A), suggesting that it may be a pseudoaneurysm, LV ejection fraction (LVEF) was significantly reduced (approximately 30%). Both LV and left atrium (LA) were enlarged (73 mm and 56 mm, respectively). Additionally, moderate mitral and mild tricuspid regurgitations were observed. The cardiac MRI confirmed the echocardiographic findings in terms of both diagnosis and dimensions (42 × 73 mm). Moreover, there was an area of the mural thrombus up to 35 mm (Figure 1 B). The patient was referred for an urgent surgery and admitted to the Department of Cardiac Surgery and Transplantology for combined aneurysmectomy and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). A standard median sternotomy was performed. After the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) was harvested, the patient was connected to cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) (Figure 2). With the heart arrested, the inferior wall of the LV was incised and the pseudoaneurysm was resected followed by massive clot evacuation. The edges of the ventricular wall were oversewn using two patches and 2.0 nonabsorbable monofilament suture. The LAD was grafted with LIMA. There was no possibility for RCA grafting due to the pseudoaneurysm location and small diameter of the artery.
