Right ventricular pseudoaneurysm repair and fibrin pericardiectomy after a fall from height in a young male patient

İngilizce (OpenAlex)

Right ventricular pseudoaneurysms are rare in the literature. Patients may have complaints such as shortness of breath, fatigue, and palpitations, as well as signs such as ventricular arrhythmias and hypotension. In addition to a good physical examination and anamnesis, transthoracic echocardiography, transesophageal echocardiography, computed tomography, computed tomography angiography, magnetic resonance imaging, magnetic resonance angiography, scintigraphy, and ventriculography can also be used for diagnosis. The certain treatment of right ventricular pseudoaneurysms is surgical aneurysmectomy and repair. Herein, we present the diagnosis and management of a 32-year-old male patient with a right ventricular pseudoaneurysm, which was diagnosed 20 years after a fall from height.
