| Popis: | Submitral left ventricular aneurysm is a cardiac pathology widely recognized, but relatively unknown, occurred almost exclusively in African black patients. Although still this idea of racial prevalence exists, cases have been described in patients of all the races. Ten Brazilian cases were reported. One of them was presented inside an Italian paper that refers the surgical treatment of a Brazilian patient of black race. We reported one more submitral left ventricular aneurysm case in a brown female patient, with antecedents of peripheral thromboembolism initially not identified as consequence of the cardiac pathology. |
