case_images: On admission, a transthoracic echocardiogram showed a left ventricular (LV) aneurysm of the inferior wall (fig. 1), pericardial effusion and an ejection fraction of 40%.
case_images: Preoperative cardiac CT scan findings. a Aneurysm of the LV inferior wall (asterisk) after iatrogenic myocardial ischemia. b Right CAA with dislocated stent. The asterisk indicates intrastent occlusive stenosis. c Patency of stent in proximal LAD and significant stenosis (asterisk) of the middle tract.

case_images: A cardiac computed tomography (CT) scan showed a giant LV aneurysm involving the inferior wall (fig. 2a), right coronary artery occlusion due to displacement of the proximal tip of the stent (fig. 2b) and an LAD intrastent stenosis (fig. 2c).
case_images: Follow-up cardiac CT scan findings: control after aneurysm repair (asterisk) and LIMA to LAD bypass (arrows).
