ABSTRACT
The surgical treatment of postinfarct aneurysm on the posterobasal aspect of left ventricle is seldom reported compared to apical aneurysm although the actual incidence is higher than expected, partly because of the complexity of the operation and unpredictable postoperative results. Here, we present a case of postinfarct posterobasal left ventricular aneurysm in which endoventricular circular patch plasty technique was applied successfully. The methodology is described with review of the relevant literature.
