Abstract

Submitral aneurysm is a rare cardiac pathology of uncertain origin with varied clinical manifestations. Recent studies have revealed a congenital basis of this pathology, although genetic link has been suspected because of the racial predilection. The other suggested aetiologies are infection and inflammation. The case reported here is that of a young female with a large submitral aneurysm presenting in a state of cardiogenic shock. In addition, the presence of raised inflammatory parameters indicates that the cause of origin of this aneurysm is related to inflammation.

Cardiac Aneurysm

Aneurysm refers to a bulge of the wall or lining of a vessel commonly occurring in the blood vessels at the base of the septum or within the aorta. In the heart, it usually arises from a patch of weakened tissue in a ventricular wall, which swells into a bubble filled with blood. Discover the latest research on cardiac aneurysm here.
