Background: Takayasu arteritis (TA) is a chronic inflammatory disease of unknown etiology characterized by a large vessel vasculitis involving the aorta and its branches. Myocardial involvement is extremely unusual in TA and is mostly in the form of myocarditis, ventricular hypertrophy, and ventricular dysfunction secondary to coronary ischemia. Submitral aneurysms have been reported in TA and has been attributed to the chronic inflammatory process in TA.

Introduction: and importance: Submitral aneurysms are an uncommon heart condition that is widespread among young black Africans, congenital etiology is the most common, when SMA is found in patients of other races, other etiologies must be sought, especially ischemic.
Case Presentation: We present the case of a 65-year-old male patient admitted for wide complex tachycardia at a rate of 198 bpm, in whom transthoracic echocardiography revealed a submitral aneurysm and coronary angiography revealed an occlusion of the left circumflex artery.
Clinical Discussion: Submitral left ventricular aneurysm is a rare cardiac pathology with a variety of causes including inflammation, infection, traumatic illness, or, in rare cases, ischemic heart disease; it can be caused by a congenital defect in the posterior portion of the mitral annulus, which is more common in African population.
