Massive inferior wall aneurysm presenting with ventricular tachycardia and refractory cardiomyopathy requiring multiple interventions: A case report.

Background: Inferior wall left ventricular aneurysms are rare, they develop after transmural myocardial infarction (MI) and may be associated with poorer prognosis. We present a unique case of a large aneurysm of the inferior wall complicated by ventricular tachycardia (VT) and requiring surgical resection and mitral valve replacement.

Case Summary: A 59-year-old male was admitted for VT one month after he had a delayed presentation for an inferior ST-segment elevation MI and was discovered to have a large true inferior wall aneurysm on echocardiography and confirmed on coronary computed tomography (CT) angiography.
