We report the clinical case and the infrequent image of a patient developing a ventricular aneurysm following a myocardial infarction. We take advantage of this clinical case to recall some differences between aneurysm and pseudo-aneurysm with a very different prognosis.

Article Synopsis
- Infective endocarditis (IE) can occur in adults with ventricular septal defects (VSD), and this case reports a rare instance involving systemic embolisms and aortic pseudoaneurysms.
- A 27-year-old woman with a previously asymptomatic VSD presented with prolonged fever and was found to have staphylococcus infection, heart murmurs, and serious complications like mycotic aneurysms and embolisms.
- The patient received targeted antibiotics and underwent urgent heart surgery, emphasizing the importance of checking for systemic embolism in right ventricle IE and noting that congenital VSD can lead to serious complications from bacteremia.

Introduction: With the introduction of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR), thoracic endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (TEVAR), and frequent use of left ventricular assist devices in complicated percutaneous coronary interventions, the use of large bore arterial access has become a necessity. In the index study, we compared the percutaneous closure of large arteriotomies with open surgical (OS) closure.
Methods: It was a prospective study in which we compared the technical success and vascular complication rate associated with the use of a suture-based vascular closure device (VCD): Perclose ProGlide (PP) with that of OS closure.
